Summary
A prototype of a Robotic Arm, which could be able to work in 5-dimensional movements/motions just like movements of human hand from shoulder to palm. A claw at the tip of working end to hold the working equipment. The instructions for desired movements will be provided by programming.
Objective
Our obective is to automate the welding process to increase the production quality and speed by increasing accuracry of weld and manulplating the motion of robot.
Implementation Methods
1. Literature Study
2. Basic knowledge of
components work
3. Finalized components
list after detailed
comparison of pros
and cons and cost
estimation
4. Rough sketching.
5. Finalized sketching.
6. CAD designing.
7. Components and
material purchasing.
8. Working to meet
desired components.
9. Assembling.
10. Programming.
11. Testing.
Benefits of Project
This project will be very helpful for us. By doing this, we will be able to make
ourselves capable of doing:
Technical Detail
5-dimensional robotic arm will be designed and fabricated. The base plate of steel will be
constructed for the complete holding purpose of the arm. 6 stepper motors will be set along-with coupling
and pulley at their rotating ends. Shafts will be connected with the stepper motors rotating ends by the use
of L-brackets, so that they could rotate with the motors. There will be a claw at the working end of the
robotic arm to hold the working equipment. Programming (Python) will be done by using arduino UNO
which will allow arm to just work according to the instructions given by the programmer. Changes could
also be made in programming even after the fabrication process that will allow arm to work in the desired
directions/movements.
