气动装置的“流体肌肉”是一个全新的气动驱动器，由Festo公司开发研制。它的仿生肌主要是一个中空的橡胶柱体，内置芳族聚酰胺纤维。如果流体肌肉中充满空气，它的直径扩大、长度减小，从而进行流动的弹性运动。“流体肌肉”的应用使得运动过程不仅在动作、速度和强度上与人体运动相似，而且在灵敏度上也与人体运动相似。“流体肌肉”产生的力是相同体积气缸的七倍。“流体肌肉”坚固耐用，即使是在沙滩或尘埃等极端环境中都可以使用。The pneumatic “fluidic muscle”, a completely new kind of pneumatic drive, is a development by Festo.
The bionic muscles consist mainly of a hollow elastomer cylinder embedded with aramid fibres. When the fluidic muscle fills with air, it increases in diameter and contracts in length, enabling a fluid, elastic movement.
The use of the fluidic muscle enables motion sequences which approach human movement not only in terms of kinematics, speed and strength, but also sensitivity.
The fluidic muscle can exert ten times the force of a comparably sized cylinder, is very sturdy, and can even be used under extreme conditions such as in sand or dust.

鳍条效应也适用于自动化最基本的实际应用中。使用Festo的仿生材料分类闸，以Festo的流体肌肉为致动器，一步程序就可以把材料系统地分成七部分。The Fin Ray Effect can also be used in basic practical applications in automation. Seven parts can be systematically sorted in a single procedure with the bionic material sorting gate from Festo, with Festo fluidic muscles as actuators.
机器人已被证明能够在一个多种应用多种益处。 Manufacturers introducing robots to their production processes have typically seen a significant transformation in their productivity and efficiency.机器人制造商介绍他们的生产工序通常发生在他们的生产力和效率的重大转变。
The International Federation of Robotics recently undertook a survey that identified the top 10 reasons that manufacturers invest in robots.在国际机器人联合会最近进行了一个确定的10大理由机器人制造商在投资调查。 ABB has now built on that survey and developed a Guide to help you better understand the "10 good reasons for investing in robots" with real-life case studies from companies and integrators who exemplify each one of the reasons. ABB公司现已建立在该项调查，并制定了指南，帮助您更好地了解“10机器人的投资与现实生活的公司和系统集成体现每个谁的原因之一案例研究”的理由。
The 10 good reasons 10个很好的理由
They range from reducing operating costs, improving product quality and consistency, as well as the quality of work for employees, to increasing production output rates, product manufacturing flexibility and reducing material waste and increasing yield.它们的范围从降低运营成本，提高产品质量和一致性，以及对员工的工作质量，以期提高生产产出率，产品的制造灵活性和减少材料浪费和增加产量。
流体肌肉和机械系统相互作用在“气动驾驶”中实现了优良驾驶和飞行的模拟环境。一个并联结构的六足系统使用6块Festo流体肌肉制造出了驾驶和飞行的感觉，犹如身临其境。在这次项目中，气动装置供应商巨头Festo公司证实了一个精密水力机构的替代方案，既吸人眼球，又有成本效益。The interplay of fluidic muscles and mechatronic systems in the Airmotion_ride makes it possible to generate an extraordinary range of driving and flight simulations. A hexapod structure using parallel kinematics, with six Festo fluidic muscles, creates a realistic driving and flying sensation. In this project, leading pneumatics supplier Festo demonstrates an exciting, cost-effective alternative to complicated hydraulic constructions.
放飞风筝需要娴熟的技能，Festo公司凭借其“空中自动化风筝”首次证实运用机电学原理可以实现风筝全程自动化控制。这是其在运用流动气流核心技术上的新发展。
“空中自动风筝”包含两个分别用机电控制器操纵的双线风筝。运用伺服电机和人造风，这两个风筝就可以实现室内自动化操作。各风筝线通过快速开关阀连接到Festo公司生产的DMSP射流臂，它可以缩短风筝线的长度。如果风筝断线，通过射流臂收缩风筝线就可以使其平稳飞行。It takes a fair amount of skill to fly a kite. With its Sky_liner project, Festo has become the first company to demonstrate that fully automated control can be achieved with the aid of mechatronics, thus linking a new development to its core competency of automation using moving air.
Sky_liner consists of two two-line kites, each of which is controlled using a mechatronic control unit. The two kites are operated automatically indoors, using servo motors and artificial wind. Each line is connected via fast-switching valves to a fluidic muscle DMSP from Festo, which shortens the line and counterbalances the kite by contracting when the kite breaks away.

“气动机器人手臂”的灵感来源于自然界。结合机电一体化和人类仿生学模型，机器人手臂彰显了未来自动运动序列新的可行性。
“气动机器人手臂”由机器骨骼和机器肌肉组成。30块肌肉连接带动骨骼移动，包括尺骨、桡骨、掌骨和指骨以及肩关节和肩胛。这种连接技术目前还没有发明出来。
机器肌肉是Festo公司的一个产品，已经广泛应用于工业应用，叫做流体肌肉。这种技术使用了Festo公司的微型创新压力比例阀，让我们能够精确控制设计的力量和硬度。这些执行器与机电一体化系统和软件的技术水平同步。
扩展“气动机器人”的传感器系统也非常合理，就像开发后背、臀部和脖子部位一样，比如安装摄像头或者有感知能力的零件。这些扩展让机器人能够在更加危险的情况下工作发挥了重要作用。
Airics_arm is inspired by nature. Combining mechatronics and the model of human biology, the robotic arm shows new possibilities in automated motion sequences of the future.
Airics_arm is equipped with artificial bones and muscles. 30 muscles move the bone structure comprising the ulna and radius, the metacarpal bones and the bones of the fingers as well as the shoulder joint and the shoulder blade; joints that are not found in the world of technology.
The muscles are a product of Festo and are already widely used in industrial practice under the name of Fluidic Muscle. This technology, combined with very small and highly innovative piezo proportional valves from Festo, enable us to accurately control the designs forces and rigidity. These actuators are coordinated by state-of-the-art mechatronic systems and software.
Extending the system of sensors of Airics_arm, e.g. with cameras or elements for tactile perception, is just as plausible as the development of a design for a back, hip and neck. These extensions will also play an important role in robotics as even more dangerous and hazardous situations in technology could be assigned to them.
