Introduction to Robotics & TinkerCAD
- 1. Introduction to Robotics & TinkerCAD Presented By: Archita Singh Robotics & Automation Professional
- 2. Overview •Comparison: Machine vs Robot •Introduction to Robots •Interdisciplinary Topic •Applications •History & Laws of Robots •Components •Types of Robots •Advantages/Disadvantages •Future of Robots & Benefits.
- 4. Introduction to Robot •A Robot is a reprogrammable, multifunctional manipulator designed to move material, parts, tools, or specialized devices through variable programmed motions for the performance of a variety of tasks with appropriate intelligence. •Robotics is the study of Robots.
- 8. •21st century is a Technological Era. •Robotics fills the gap between conventional methods used in industries and output productivity. •Employment in science and engineering fields is expected to grow 18.7% by 2020 •Science and engineering careers opportunities grow at an average annual rate of 3.3% compared to 1.5% for all other job. Purpose: Getting future ready

- 11. 1495 AD – Designs for humanoid robot 1739 AD– Vaucanson’s digesting duck 1898- Tesla demonstrates the first radio controlled (wireless) vessel (torpedo) 1961 – Motor assembly robotic arm by George Devol.
- 12. Little more about History… •In 1920 Karel Čapek, czeck fiction writer coined the word robota, in his play Rossum's Universal Robots(R.U.R.) , which means “Slaves”. •Later in 1942, Issac Asimov, a fiction writer introduced a short story "Runaround“, where he has given the Three Laws of Robotics based upon previous theories.
- 13. Laws of Robotics •A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm. •A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law. •A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Laws.
- 15. Sensors To collect information about the internal state of the robot or to communicate with the outside world. Sensors
- 16. Actuators It is a device that causes motion and it can cause linear motion or rotary motion. Types : Electric Hydraulic Pneumatic
- 17. •Electrical Actuators Electrical motors •AC motors •DC servo motors •Stepper Motors •Hydraulic actuators Use hydraulic fluid to amplify the control command signal •Pneumatic Actuators •Use compressed air as the driving force
- 18. Controller •The controller functions in a manner analogous to the human brain. •The controller directs and controls the movement of the Manipulator and the Endeffector.
- 19. Endeffector All the devices that can be installed at a robot wrist. Eg: Gripper and tools
- 20. Types of Robots
- 24. Advantages and Disadvantages • Increased Efficiency • Improved Quality • Improved working environment • Increased Profitability • Longer Working Hours • Prestige • Capital Cost • Expertise • Cost • Limitation of type of task.

- The mechanical duck appeared to have the ability to eat kernels of grain, and to metabolize and defecate them. Tesla made a small unmanned boat that used a coherer based radio control Conceived from a design for a mechanical arm patented in 1954 (granted in 1961) by American inventor George Devol, the Unimate was developed as a result of the foresight and business acumen of Joseph Engelberger - the Father of Robotics
- An articulated robot is the type of robot that comes to mind when most people think about robots. Much like CNC mills, articulated robots are classified by the number of points of rotation or axes they have. The most common is the 6-axis articulated robot. There are also 4- and 7-axis units on the market.
- A Selective Compliance Articulated Robot Arm (SCARA) is a good — and cost-effective — choice for performing operations between two parallel planes (e.g., transferring parts from a tray to a conveyor). SCARA robots excel at vertical assembly tasks such as inserting pins without binding due to their vertical rigidity.
- Delta robots, also referred to as “spider robots,” use three base-mounted motors to actuate control arms that position the wrist. Basic delta robots are 3-axis units but 4- and 6-axis models are also available.
- Cartesian robots typically consist of three or more linear actuators assembled to fit a particular application. Positioned above a workspace, cartesian robots can be elevated to maximize floor space and accommodate a wide range of workpiece sizes. (When placed on an elevated structure suspended over two parallel rails, cartesian robots are referred to as “gantry robots.”)
