Abstract
A robot includes a robot body, a control processor, a detection circuit, a memory, and a determining circuit. The control processor is configured to control the robot body to perform a work on a workpiece while the workpiece is conveyed. The detection circuit is configured to detect external force which the robot body receives from the workpiece. The memory is to store a threshold force. The determining circuit is configured to determine whether the external force is equal to or larger than the threshold force.
