Abstract
A multi-joint robot for loading/unloading a work into/from a cassette, which includes a hand part holding the work, an arm part rotatably holding the hand part, a link mechanism rotatably holding the base end side of the arm part and moving so that the moving route of the base end side of the arm part becomes linear in a direction roughly orthogonal to a direction for loading/unloading the work, and a driving device for moving the tip side of the arm part so as to linearly interpolate it in a direction for loading/unloading the work according to the movement of the link mechanism.
