Design and Static Analysis of Robotic Arm using Ansys

Abstract

In this paper, analysis and exploration is done of the stresses and total deformation incited for a specific payload of a robot. A five degree of freedom (DOF) robot arm has been selected for stress and deformation evaluation. The design and model of the five DOF robot arm has been fabricated by Solid works and the whole structure evaluation has been executed by ANSYS software. In present world, robots are used in different fields especially where accuracy is needed. A model design development methodology utilizes the finite element analysis (FEA) for designing the robotic arm. In the past few years, the modelling, construction, and evolution of robot arm have been very dynamic research fields all over the world. In this paper, the simulation of a robotic arm is done with the help of ANSYS software, and many systemic aspects of a robotic arm are explored. The main purpose is the evolution of a design which has the ability to guessing the robot arm precision, under definite arm postures and maximum stress circumstances. Dissimilar nozzle weights are forced, and final data at various situations are equated to discover the feeble portions, so further structure upgrading should be possible.
