<p>An articulated robot comprises a movable first transferring portion and a second transferring portion movably supported in relation to the movable first transferring portion by a joint portion. A workpiece is positioned at a position, where a workpiece positional deviation detecting means is located, by a hand portion formed at an end of the second transferring portion. The workpiece positional deviation detecting means detects the amount of deviation in the position of the workpiece. A positioning portion of the workpiece and a sensor portion for detecting deviations of the workpiece are formed either at the first transferring portion of the second transferring portion which form the articulated robot. A detecting operation by the sensor portion and transferring of the first and second transferring portions are enabled when the workpiece is positioned at the positioning portion of the articulated robot.</p> |
