Abstract
The main aim of this study was to decrease the weight of mobile transportation robots and to check the optimized shape using topology optimization and structural analysis. The analyses were applied using CAE Software with the methods of topology optimization and structural analysis. In the topology optimization process, the preserved areas were defined for connection and fixing areas. The aim was to decrease the weight of the robot structure and lower the energy consumption of the robotic system. After topology optimization, the structural strength analysis was applied to the new optimized structure to check the strength. The weight of the structure was decreased with a ratio of 20%. In addition to this, the structural strength of the robot was observed similar to the original body with the factor of safety value as three.
