Design and Real-time Simulation of Robotic Arm

Abstract

The paper is formulated with the aim of designing a robotic arm to pick and place the object to the desired location. The 3 degree of freedom (DOF) robot has been designed and simulated for easy and smooth work. The robotic arm has been designed with the objective of a low-cost arm with locally available material. Additionally, various test has been carried out at different loading conditions and resultant current consumption, end effector accuracy, precision and motor movement range were studied. The results proved that the robotic arm has better precision, accuracy, and motor working range. Furthermore, the reliability of the 3-DOF robotic arm is quite better due to a movable base. The paper describes every step of designing a robotic arm and its testing and results.
