Excerpt from Robot Crane Technology: Final Report

The last 10 years have seen a tremendous growth in the use of robots in the manufacturing industry with more than units installed in the United States, most of them in the automotive or automotive-related industries [u.s. Department of Commerce, Amidst this astounding technological development, the application of robots in the large - scale fabrication, assembly and heavy construction industry is virtually nonexistent in the United States. The reasons for delay are probably because these are made-to - order industries, requiring precision in the construction of components and blocks, requiring an enormous number of structural members and machines most of which are heavy and bulky. In the case of heavy construction equipment, delays occur because they operate in a more complex and unconstrained environment that of the construction site.
