Abstract
“A robot is a reprogrammable, multifunctional manipulator designed to move materials, parts, tools or specialized devices through variable programmed motions for the performance of a variety of tasks”
Robot is an intelligent and human operated self controlled.
Robotics has made a revolution in the field of industry and in many domestic applications. Robotic plays a vital role such as cooking, serving and majority robots used in field of industry and industrial applications.
Some of the industrial applications are in automobile industries, beverages manufacturing industries, aero-space industries, computer assembly, and .etc
We have made of prototype of a pick and place robot which is used in beverages manufacturing industries.
We have studied and analysed and made this robot. The purpose of pick and place robot is to pick the object which is in production line and place in the desired place or place according to destination.
INTRODUCTION
Robotics is a prominent component of manufacturing automation which affects human labour at all levels, from unskilled workers to professional engineers and manager of production. Future robots may find applications outside of the factory in banks, restaurants, and even homes. It is possible, likely, that robotics will become a field, like today’s computer technology, which is pervasive throughout our Society.
Well it is a system that contains sensors, control systems, manipulators, power supplies and software all working together to perform a task. Designing, building, programming and testing a robot is a combination of physics, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, structural engineering, mathematics and computing. In some cases biology, medicine, chemistry might also be involved. The study of robotics means that students are actively engaged with all of these disciplines in a deeply problem-posing problem
Robot can be defined as programmable multi-functional manipulator. It is used to move or hold work pieces or specialized devices and it can able to perform verity of tasks
The use of robots is necessary to meet production demands. There are many advantages to incorporating robots such as, decreasing cost and waste material while speeding production. Robots are also removing the risks to employees by performing dangerous tasks.
Since the first industrial machine-tending robot was introduced in North America in the 1960s, the industry has grown to more than 135,000 robots in operation, according to figures from the Robotic Industries Association (RIA).
