1. What is the primary function of an industrial robot?
A. To replace human intelligence completely
B. To automate repetitive industrial tasks
C. To design mechanical systems
D. To generate electricity
Rationale: Industrial robots are mainly used to improve
efficiency by performing repetitive tasks in manufacturing
environments.
Correct Answer: B
2. Which component acts as the “brain” of a robot?
A. Actuator
B. Sensor
C. Controller
D. End effector
Rationale: The controller processes inputs and sends
commands to the robot system.
Correct Answer: C
,3. Which device is used for sensing position or movement in
robotics?
A. Motor
B. Encoder
C. Gripper
D. Relay
Rationale: Encoders provide feedback on position, speed, and
direction.
Correct Answer: B
4. What is an end effector?
A. The robot’s power supply
B. The robot’s control unit
C. The tool attached to the robot arm
D. The robot’s programming software
Rationale: End effectors interact directly with objects (e.g.,
grippers, welders).
Correct Answer: C
5. Which type of robot joint provides linear movement?
A. Revolute joint
B. Prismatic joint
,C. Spherical joint
D. Cylindrical joint
Rationale: Prismatic joints allow straight-line motion.

contact?
A. Temperature sensor
B. Proximity sensor
C. Pressure sensor
D. Flow sensor
Rationale: Proximity sensors detect objects using
electromagnetic fields or infrared.
Correct Answer: B
, 8. What is robot calibration used for?
A. Increasing robot speed
B. Improving accuracy of robot movements
C. Changing robot shape
D. Increasing power consumption
Rationale: Calibration ensures precise robot positioning.
Correct Answer: B
9. Which language is commonly used for industrial robot
programming?
A. HTML
B. RAPID
C. SQL
