About

Tang Can’s research bridges the frontiers of medical robotics and industrial automation, with a focus on enhancing precision and efficiency in specialized environments. In his early work, he contributed to the field of surgical robotics by analyzing the kinematics and dexterity of a novel surgical robot, a foundational study that has garnered steady interest over the years. His more recent and highly applied contribution involves the development of a pneumatically-actuated transferring robot for industrial forge manufacturing, integrating visual inspection technology to automate a customized forging process. This 5-DOF robot, equipped with a 2-fingered gripper, demonstrates Tang Can’s ability to address real-world manufacturing challenges through mechatronic design and sensor integration. While his citation counts remain modest, his work reflects a dedicated focus on practical, task-specific robotic solutions—from the operating room to the factory floor. Tang Can’s research is particularly valuable for students and engineers interested in the intersection of robotics, kinematics, and industrial automation, showcasing how targeted design can solve complex manipulation and inspection tasks in demanding production environments.
