==Applications==
Popular applications for Cartesian coordinate robots are computer numerical control machinemachines ([[CNC machine]]) and [[3D printing]]. The simplest application is used in milling machines and [[plotter]]s where a tool such as a router or pen translates across an ''X-Y'' plane and is raised and lowered onto a surface to create a precise design.
 
[[Automated storage and retrieval system|Pick and place]] machines are another application for Cartesian coordinate robots.  For example, overhead gantry Cartesian robots are [https://robot.cfp.co.ir/en/robots/cartesian-gantry applied] for continuous parts loading and unloading on [[CNC]] lathes production lines, performing 3-axis ''(X, Y, Z)'' pick and place operations of heavy loads with high speed performance and high positioning accuracy.  In general, overhead gantry Cartesian robots are suitable for many [[automation]] systems.<ref>{{cite web|title=When do you need a gantry robot|url=http://www.linearmotiontips.com/when-do-you-need-a-gantry-robot/|website=Linear Motion Tips|date=27 February 2015|publisher=Danielle Collins|access-date=21 September 2017}}</ref>
