Abstract
A parallel link robot includes a base, three servo motors disposed in the base, three arms, and a robot controller. Each of the three arms includes a first link and a second link that respectively include a first joint and a second joint. Each of the three arms is driven by a corresponding one of the three servo motors. The robot controller determines whether or not any of the first and second joints of the arms is dislocated on the basis of the torques of the three servo motors.
