Abstract

This study explores optimizing a 6 Degrees of Freedom (DOF) robotic arm to boost machining efficiency by examining the potential benefits of employing composite materials over aluminum alloy T 6061. It entails two key components: analyzing forward and inverse kinematics to comprehend the arm's motion and refining motion control strategies, and conducting a thorough evaluation of various composite materials through Ansys static structural analysis. Initially, the focus lies on understanding the arm's motion range and refining motion control strategies through kinematics analysis. Subsequently, a detailed examination evaluates replacing aluminum alloy T 6061 with diverse composite materials. Findings are compared with the aluminum alloy's performance metrics, offering insights into potential enhancements in machining efficiency and structural integrity. Ultimately, the research seeks to advance robotic arm technology by identifying materials capable of enhancing performance and durability in machining applications.
