# Industrial robot

## Abstract

The industrial robot includes a hand, and a support member that supports the hand. The hand includes a connecting portion that configures a base end portion of the hand and is connected to the support member, a loading portion that configures a tip end portion of the hand and on which the conveying target is to be loaded, and a plurality of sensing mechanisms that sense the conveying target for correcting a position of the hand. The sensing mechanisms are transmission type optical sensors each including a light emitting portion and a light receiving portion that are positioned to be opposite to each other via a gap in an up-down direction and are positioned on a base end side of the loading portion.
