Abstract
A parallel robot of the SCARA type includes a base or a body to which two articulated elements are attached, each including an arm and a forearm that are connected by a joint and are mounted in a manner allowing rotation about one and the same geometrical axis. The two articulated elements are attached to two annular segments, respectively, that form two movable parts of a circular motor whose stator at least partially forms the body, these two movable parts being assigned to one and the same circular path of the stator. Preferably, the two movable parts are guided through one and the same guideway in order to ensure that these two movable parts rotate very precisely about the same geometrical axis.
