UNIT I
1. Define a Robot?
RIA defines a robot as a “programmable, multifunction manipulator designed to Move
materials, parts, tools or special devices through variable programmed motions for the
performance of the variety of task”.
2. What is mean by automation?
Automation is a technology that is concerned with the use of electronic mechanical and
computer based system in the operation control and production.
3. What is a robot?
Robot is an
Electro-mechanical device
Perform various task
May be human controlled or automated.
It finds its uses in all aspects of our life
4. What is Repeatabilty
It is the ability of a robot to achieve the target point after the process completes for cyclic process
5. Sketch and name the parts of manipulator
27. Which type of robot is commonly used for pick and place operation?
Cylindrical coordinate robot is commonly used for pick and place operation
28. What do you meant by material transfer application?
Material transfer application are defined as operation in which the primary objective is move
a part from one location to another location
29. What is pick and place operation?
Pick and place operation involved tasks in which the robot picks the part at one location and
move it another location
30. What is meant by PID control?
The PID controller produces an output signal consisting of three terms-one proportional to
error signal, another one proportional to integral of error signal and the third one proportional to
derivative of error signal.
UNIT IV
Two marks
1. What is kinematics?
Kinematics will enable us to calculate what each joint variable must be if we desire the hand
to be located at a particular point and have a particular orientation.
2. Define statics.
Statics deals with force which acts on the various parts which are assumed to be rest.
3. What is link?
A link may be defined as a member (or) a combination of member of mechanism connecting
other members and having motion to them.
Link of machine may transfer both power and motion
4. What is forward kinematics?
It is a scheme to determine joint angle by robot knowing its position in the world coordinate
system
5. What is reverse kinematics?
It is a scheme to determine the position of the robot in the world coordinate system by
knowing the joint angles and the link parameter of the robot.
6. Define manipulator kinematics.
Manipulator kinematics is connected with the position and orindation of the robot’s end of
arm or end effector attached to it as a function of time but without regard for the effects of force
(or) mass.
Assembly
Inspection
7. What are the benefits of industrial robot?
Industrial robot offers the following benefits
Increase productivity
Improve product quality
More consistent product quality
Reduce scrap and waste
Reduce reworking costs
Reduce raw goods inventory
Direct labour cost saving
Saving in overhead cost such as lighting, heating and cooling
8. What is palletizing?
Palletizing is the operation in which the robot picks cartons from conveyor and places them
on to a pallet
9. What is depalletizing?
Depalletizing operation is the reverse of palletizing operation in which the robot removes
cartons from the pallet and places them on to conveyor or other location
10. What are the different types of material handling operation? Nov/Dec2013
Picking and placing
Palletizing and depalletizing
Machine loading and unloading
Parts feeding , storage and retrival
Sorting of the parts from conveyors
11. What are the gantry robots?
If the robots are mounted over head they are called gentry robots
12. How the workpieces are fed to the robot by some mechanical feeding device?
The workpieces are fed to the robot by some mechanical feeding device or conveyor in a
known location and orientation
13. What is the interpretation of manufacturing system?
Manufacturing system is defined as the system which converts the input into a ` suitable
output
14. What are the technologies used in manufacturing system?
Computer aided design/computer aided manufacturing
FMS
CIM
AGILE
LEAN
