Project Summary

As we continue to automate the world to make our lives easier, the fundamental nature of work is changing. Manpower required in factories have reduced significantly because most of the work is now being done by machines. In simple words human arms are being replaced by robotic arms. Consequently, robotic arm takes on the burden of manual, repetitive tasks, freeing people to achieve their potential. Also these automated arms produce better results, reduces injury and drives industry further. Most importantly using them has also helped in making processes more efficient and less noisy. Availability of robotic arms for monotonous and dangerous tasks has reserved human hands for critical and safer work, resulting in elevation of their value. This article aims to provide you with working of it, parts comprising it, its applications and projects related to this incredible technology. In modern industry, innovation by automating processes provides companies with competitive advantages in speed, efficiency, and production value, This project replace their manpower-driven operation of  color sorting of different pieces of products(such as colored cube sorting).

Project Objectives

The main objective in completing this project is to select a robotic arm for sorting of cubes This project is basic idea/prototype for reducing human effort in industries where heavyweight products are not easy to sorted by human efforts. so our idea for this project is business friendly, time friendly.

Designing and Modeling of the sorting mechanism for small cubes. We need to have a time study between currently undergoing manual operation and newly designed automated operation. The working of this robotic arm, it’s repeatability, lifetime etc. are to be found out. The choice of the end effectors, it’s design and analysis should be carried out and documented. Also some type of prototype hardware will be designed for working of robotic arms

Benefits of the Project

• Fast Assembly – robots can pick parts from incoming conveyor and assemble them onto work pieces carried by an outgoing conveyor with high precision.
• Inspection and Quality Control – robot visually inspects and picks out defective products moving on a fast conveyor.
• Fast Packaging – vision spots products spread out on moving conveyor and then the robot transfers them into packaging containers at high speed.
• Fast Sorting– robot instantaneously picks and separates different types of parts passing through its vision domain.
