→Applications: Separated the two paragraphs to distinguish between the two applications: 1) CNC machines and 2) pick and place machines. Reworded the second paragraph since it was copied word-for-word from the website, https://robot.cfp.co.ir/en/robots/cartesian-gantry. However this website has some nice videos of cartesian coordinate robots, so I added a link to it.
A popular application for this type of robot is a computer numerical control machine ([[CNC machine]]) and [[3D printing]]. The simplest application is used in milling machines and drawing machines[[plotter]]s where a pentool orsuch as a router or pen translates across an ''x-y'' plane while a tooland is raised and lowered onto a surface to create a precise design. [[Automated storage and retrieval system|Pick and place]] machines and [[plotter]]s are also based on the principal of the cartesian coordinate robot.
