Material Handling and Robots. Workspace of a Specific Kinematics Chain
Journal Title: RECENT - Year 2011, Vol 12, Issue 33
Abstract
In automated manufacturing systems, material handling is done, very often, using structures as robotic arms/manipulators. Design of these manufacturing systems is done either by a team that may not include robotics specialists or in a very short period of time. Present paper is describing the steps that a manufacturing systems designer should follow to choose a robotic arm/ manipulator and the software oriented on generating the workspace of a particular kinematic structure, with certain dimensions. The software is part of a toolbox for robots, made by the author of this paper, toolbox for Matlab programming environment and simulation.
