Calculus algorithm for evaluation of gravitational and inertial loads acting on a SCARA industrial robot in pick and place applications
Journal Title: Proceedings in Manufacturing Systems - Year 2017, Vol 12, Issue 4
Abstract
In this paper a calculus methodology for optimal structure design of numerically controled (NC) axes of SCARA industrial robot (IR) is presented. Besides identification of optimal structure, also a performance check is presented correlated with performances desired to be achieved by the overall assembly of the robot. Such calculus methodology can be applied in conceptual design and optimization of mechanical structure for new robot prototypes (but with similar structure) or for correct identification of constructive robot variant or right constructive and functional parameters of a robot for a particular robotic application.
