Pick and Place Robot

The pick and place robot uses sensors and cameras to pick up objects and place them in coordinated locations. It has three rotational axes to move its arm to extend, retract, or rotate to pick and place boxes of different colors into organized groups based on each box's content color code. The robot moves on a wheeled base to different locations and uses hydraulic, pneumatic, or electric motors to control the motion of its end effector arm to accurately pick and place boxes.

Pick and Place Robot

INTRODUCTION
Robotics is the branch of mechanical engineering, electrical engineering and
computer science that deals with the design, construction, operation, and
application of robots, as well as computer systems for their control, sensory
feedback, and information processing.
The pick and place robot is capable to pick an object through sensors and camera
that are attached to it and place the object accordingly to the coordinated places.
The main idea is to develop application which can reach places where humans
cannot reach like space, hidden places and small tunnels. The pick and place robot
has three axes and about these three axes only motion occurs.
The following movements are required for this robot:A) Clockwise and Anti-clockwise rotation of the robot unit on its base
B) Horizontal Linear movement of the arm to extend or contraction
C) Up and down movement of the arm
PROBLEM DEFINITION
There are various boxes which are organised randomly irrespective to the contents
in the box. There is a colour code available on each box. The robot must sense this
colour and arrange the boxes as per the colour content, thus ultimately organising
the boxes with respect to their content.
OBJECTIVE
The Robot has to organise the boxes after sensing the colour on the boxes and thus
organise the boxes in proper order.
METHODOLOGY

The Robot has to organise the boxes after sensing the colour on the boxes and thus
organise the boxes in proper order. A simple pick and place robot consists of two
rigid bodies on a moving base, connected together with rotary joint. A rotary joint
is a one which provides rotation in 360 degrees around any one of the axes.
a) The bottom or the base is attached with wheels which provide linear movement.
b) The 1st rigid body is fixed and supports the second rigid body to which the end
effector is provided.
c) The 2nd rigid body is provided with movement in all 3 axes and has 3 degrees of
freedom. It is connected to the 1st body with a rotational joint.
d) The end effector should accommodate all 6 degrees of freedom, in order to reach
all sides of the component, to take up position to any height.
On a whole, the basic pick and place robot works as follows:
a) The wheels underneath the base help to move the robot to the desired location.
b) The rigid body supporting the end effector bends or straightens up to reach the
position where the object is placed.
c) The end effector picks up the object with a strong grip and places it at the
desired position.
A simple pick and place robot can be controlled by controlling the movement of its
end effector. The motion can be using hydraulic motion, i.e. using hydraulic fluid
under pressure to the drive the robot, or using pneumatic motion, i.e. using
pressurized air to cause mechanical motion. However the most effective way is
using motors to provide the required motion. The motors have to be controlled in
order to provide required motion to the robot and the end effector.

EXPECTED OUTCOMES
It can be used as follows:Defense Applications: It can be used for surveillance and also to pick up harmful
objects like bombs and diffuse them safely.

Industrial Applications: These robots are used in manufacturing, to pick up the


required parts and place it in correct position to complete the machinery fixture. It
can be also used to place objects on the conveyer belt as well as pick up defective
products from the conveyer belt.
Medical Applications: These robots can be used in various surgical operations like
in joint replacement operations, orthopedic and internal surgery operations. It
performs the operations with more precision and accuracy.
