Dynamic simulation of industrial robots behaviour using integrated software procedures
Journal Title: Proceedings in Manufacturing Systems - Year 2018, Vol 13, Issue 1
Abstract
The paper presents a research regarding the dynamic behavior of an industrial robot during operation. The main target of the attempt was to primarily test a set of software applications in a combination used in the automotive industry: ANSA-Pam-Crash-METAPost. The dynamic analysis has been performed using an explicit solver, which involves time integration and does not require an iterative computation. The robot has been programmed to manipulate a mass of 69 Kg over a distance of 1.5m at a rotational speed of 110˚/s. A comparison was also done between the robot's behavior with and without the manipulated object for the same cycling. The original research was focused on new kinematic modelling and simulation functionalities. It was further continued with an endurance test to provide information on areas that are fatigue-sensitive. The analysis proved that CAE integrated software used mainly in the automotive industry is also a valuable design and research tool for industrial robots when adapting and customizing the simulation methodology.
