<p>An industrial robot has a memory for storing a working program, a manipulator 3 with a tool 28 at its free end thereof for positioning said tool relative to a work piece in accordance with a working program stored in said memory, and a detector on the manipulator for detecting the portion of a work piece 13 to be worked. A correcting means corrects the position of a said tool, in use, relative to said portion to be worked based on detection signals from said detection means, and conveying means moves the manipulator in dependence on detection signals from said detector concerning a reference position of the work piece, so as to set the tool to the reference position. <IMAGE></p> |
