ABSTRACT:
A three-axis robot is described comprising a first horizontally disposed support having a first carriage selectively movably mounted thereon. A second support is operatively secured to the first carriage and extends transversely from the longitudinal axis of the first support. A second carriage is longitudinally movably mounted on the second support and has a third support selectively vertically movably mounted thereon. Through the use of belts and brakes, the second support may be selectively moved relative to the first support and the third support may be selectively vertically moved relative to the second support. Thus, one axis of drive actuation can provide multiple axes of motion.
