A robot has a robot arm with links and joints, at least one link being rotatable around an axis at a joint that includes a driven gear and a first motor unit with a first pinion that is engaged with the driven gear to apply a first torque to the driven gear to cause rotation of the corresponding link. The joint further includes a second motor unit with a second pinion also engaged with the driven gear. The second motor unit is adapted to apply a second torque to the driven gear, the second torque being opposed to the first torque. Also related is a method of operating at least one robot joint.
A robot comprising a robot arm comprising a plurality of links and joints, at least one link being rotatable around an axis at a joint that comprises a driven gear and a first motor unit with a first pinion, the first pinion being engaged with the driven gear so as to apply a first torque to the driven gear to cause rotation of the corresponding link,
