Static, Dynamic and Vibration Analysis on an Industrial Robot

Abstract

Purpose of the present work is to perform modeling and static, dynamic and vibration analysis of mechanical systems like Industrial Robots. A Mechanical System is a structure of elements that interact on mechanical principles. The modern technical problems are lashed with high work demands such as high speeds of mechanisms, using lower density materials, high precision of work, etc. The main objective of this work is the dynamical analysis with taking into consideration the interaction between main motion and local vibrations during the model is simulated. Taking the basics of Finite Element Analysis and FEM ; using the CATIA program gives the possibility to generate models; the HYPERMESH is for individual meshing of various components assembled in the robot; at last but not the least ANSYS is used for Static and Dynamic Analysis, on the whole the study is in a phased manner . By bringing in certain program working conditions, many types of numerical data that represented the examined system had to be determined at that time directly by user through a suitable interface system. As a future scope of the project on such a complex system of meshed elements, Vibration analysis using MATLAB might be possible in future by completely understanding the results of the above static and dynamic analysis in finite number of cases of operation of the robot. The present work deals with the analysis of the robot in two different cases of operation.
