With the rapid development of science and technology, the robotics industry has received widespread attention and rapid development in China. In many application fields, lifting system plays a pivotal role as one of the key components of robots. This paper will focus on the lifting system in the robotics industry and discuss its technical characteristics, application areas and development trends.

The lifting system, as the name suggests, refers to the equipment used for lifting and carrying objects. In the robotics industry, a lifting system usually refers to a module used to realize the functions of robot handling, assembly, and processing. According to the driving method, lifting systems can be divided into four types: hydraulic, pneumatic, electric and mechanical.

1. Hydraulic lifting system: Utilizing the principle of incompressibility of liquid, lifting action is realized by hydraulic pumps, hydraulic cylinders and other components. It is characterized by large load capacity and good impact resistance.

2. Pneumatic lifting system: taking compressed air as the power source, lifting is realized by cylinder, valve and other components. It has the advantages of fast response speed, simple structure, easy maintenance and so on.

3. Electric lifting system: adopting electric motor as the power source, lifting is realized through screw, gear and other transmission devices. It is characterized by high precision, low noise, energy saving and environmental protection.

4. Mechanical lifting system: relies on manpower, animal power or other mechanical power to realize lifting. Suitable for simple, lightweight lifting occasions.
