Assembly Line Simulation With Multi-Robot Control Peter McHugh Thomas Zack Kyle Fecteau
Introduction to the Robots • Staubli, Scara, and Microbot • Changes made last year • Tennis Ball Assembly Line • Mechanical and Electrical Modifications • Staubli Gripper and I/O Control Overview
6 Degree of Freedom Arm • Uses a pneumatic source to control the gripper. Staubli
4 Degree of Freedom Arm • Uses pneumatics to control the gripper. Scara
Establish connection through serial port • Accepts string commands through serial port, if command is executed outputs a 1 to user. Microbot
Created a program that allowed for both the Staubli and Scara to operate concurrently using commands from a program. 2008/2009 Robotics Research Group
: Tennis Ball Assembly Line
8051 Microcontroller 8051 Microcontroller used as an I/O driver Uses I/O ports to send and receive data Host computer reads the serial computer uses serial communicator program to read input from sensors. Use assembly language to program controller.
