INTRODUCTION:
Robots are highly automated mechanical manipulators controlled by computers. A robot may appear like a human being or an animal or a simple electro-mechanical device. A robot may act under the direct control of a human (e.g. the robotic arm of a general pick and place robot) or autonomously under the control of a programmed computer.
In today's industries and warehouse facilities there is a need for moving various heavy to medium weight objects from conveyor belt to receptive bins, so we have built a pick and place robot which can achieve this task easily.
In today's world there are various type of pick and place robot are there which have arm like structure and there are delta arm robots, Cartesian robots etc. As they have arm like structure and they cannot place the objects beyond a certain range and cannot lift heavy objects. They also cannot move to the various parts of the facility to place the objects.It can detect the object of various height, it can place objects from conveyor to their respective bins
NEED OF THE PRODUCT:
A pick and place robot is one such example whose main function is to pick objects from a particular place and put it to its desired position.These may be used to automate repetitive tasks that can be performed more cheaply by a robot than by the employment of a human (e.g. carrying heavy weight boxes from the conveyors thousands in number).It speeds up the process of picking parts up and placing them in new locations. The consistency, quality and repeatability of a pick and place robot system is unmatched.
PROBLEM STATEMENT :
Design a pick and place robot for cargo ware house industrialists which should be easily operable, with weight exceeding not more than 2kgs. It should be user friendly, should safely and properly place the objects, the robot must move with adapter as a source of energy which should be automatic, the cost should not exceed Rs. 5000, it should sense the height of the object type through sensors and place in their respective bin
FUNCTIONS:
- Sense the Height of the object Pick and place the object to specified location.
