November 11, 2005 ii ABSTRACT MODULAR MULTI-SCALE ASSEMBLY SYSTEM FOR MEMS PACKAGING Publication No. ______ Rakesh Murthy, MS The University of Texas at Arlington, 2005 Supervising Professor: Dr. Raul Fernandez A multi-scale robotic assembly problem is approached here with focus on mechanical design for precision positioning at the microscale. The assembly system is characterized in terms of accuracy/repeatability and calibration via experiments. The MEMS packaging requirements are studied from an assembly point of view. The tolerance budget of the assembly ranges from 4 microns to 300 microns. The system components include robots, microstages, end-effectors and fixtures that accomplish the assembly tasks. Task assignment amongst this hardware has been accomplished based on precision and dexterity availability. Various end-effectors and fixtures have been designed for use with off-the-shelf hardware (robots and microstages) to develop a coarse-fine positioning system. These end-effector and fixture designs are tested for iii precision performance. The robots and the vision system are calibrated to an accuracy of 11 microns or less. Inverse kinematics solutions for one of the robots have been developed in order to position parts in the global coordinate frame. Conclusions have been drawn with regard to implementation of calibration, fixturing, visual servoing or a combination of these techniques to achieve assembly within the specified tolerance budget as required by the target application. End-effector performance is improved by tuning the PID gains of the controller such that tool oscillations are minimized. iv TABLE OF CONTENTS ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS....................................................................................... ii ABSTRACT .............................................................................................................. iii LIST OF ILLUSTRATIONS…................................................................................. vii LIST OF TABLES..................................................................................................... ix Chapter 1.

  • History of Robotics: Timeline
    History of Robotics: Timeline This history of robotics is intertwined with the histories of technology, science and the basic principle of progress. Technology used in computing, electricity, even pneumatics and hydraulics can all be considered a part of the history of robotics. The timeline presented is therefore far from complete. Robotics currently represents one of mankind’s greatest accomplishments and is the single greatest attempt of mankind to produce an artificial, sentient being. It is only in recent years that manufacturers are making robotics increasingly available and attainable to the general public. The focus of this timeline is to provide the reader with a general overview of robotics (with a focus more on mobile robots) and to give an appreciation for the inventors and innovators in this field who have helped robotics to become what it is today. RobotShop Distribution Inc., 2008 www.robotshop.ca www.robotshop.us Greek Times Some historians affirm that Talos, a giant creature written about in ancient greek literature, was a creature (either a man or a bull) made of bronze, given by Zeus to Europa. [6] According to one version of the myths he was created in Sardinia by Hephaestus on Zeus' command, who gave him to the Cretan king Minos. In another version Talos came to Crete with Zeus to watch over his love Europa, and Minos received him as a gift from her. There are suppositions that his name Talos in the old Cretan language meant the "Sun" and that Zeus was known in Crete by the similar name of Zeus Tallaios.

  • Industrial Robot
    1 Introduction 25 1.2 Industrial robots - definition and classification 1.2.1 Definition (ISO 8373:2012) and delimitation The annual surveys carried out by IFR focus on the collection of yearly statistics on the production, imports, exports and domestic installations/shipments of industrial robots (at least three or more axes) as described in the ISO definition given below. Figures 1.1 shows examples of robot types which are covered by this definition and hence included in the surveys. A robot which has its own control system and is not controlled by the machine should be included in the statistics, although it may be dedicated for a special machine. Other dedicated industrial robots should not be included in the statistics. If countries declare that they included dedicated industrial robots, or are suspected of doing so, this will be clearly indicated in the statistical tables. It will imply that data for those countries is not directly comparable with those of countries that strictly adhere to the definition of multipurpose industrial robots. Wafer handlers have their own control system and should be included in the statistics of industrial robots. Wafers handlers can be articulated, cartesian, cylindrical or SCARA robots. Irrespective from the type of robots they are reported in the application “cleanroom for semiconductors”. Flat panel handlers also should be included. Mainly they are articulated robots. Irrespective from the type of robots they are reported in the application “cleanroom for FPD”. Examples of dedicated industrial robots that should not be included in the international survey are: Equipment dedicated for loading/unloading of machine tools (see figure 1.3).

They are also commonly referred to as robotic arms. Robot manipulators are extensively used in the industrial manufacturing sector. • and also have many other specialized applications Kinematic Chain • Robotic Manipulators are composed of an assembly of links and joints. Links are defined as the rigid sections that make up the mechanism and joints are defined as the connection between two links. The device attached to the manipulator which interacts with its environment to perform tasks is called the end-effector. • “Robotic manipulator is a set of links connected by joints to form a kinematic chain.” 2 10/25/2018 Kinematic Chain • Kinematic pair – two links connected by joint (mobile connection) • Kinematic chain of manipulator is a combination of a couple of kinematic pairs Kinematic Chain 3 10/25/2018 Type of Joints • Joints are typically rotary (revolute) or linear (prismatic). 1- Revolute (R): A revolute joint is like a hinge and allows relative rotation between two links 2- Prismatic (P): A prismatic joint allows a linear relative motion between two links. • Any other joint can represented by some combination of these two primary joints. • Spherical joint can be seen as three revolute joints with zero link lengths.

  • Implementing Efficient and Accurate Servo Drives in Robots, SCARA and Agvs
    Implementing Efficient and Accurate Servo Drives in Robots, SCARA and AGVs. Whitepaper A development platform to implement servo drives from microcontroller, through power, to encoder. Introduction Man’s fascination with building machines that do work for the human race goes back a long way. The first recorded idea of a ‘metal man’ is probably Talos, a giant bronze man created by the Greek god Hephaestus and gifted to either Minos or Europa to protect the island of Crete1. The word robot was coined by Karel Čapek in the 1920s, meaning “serf labour” or, figuratively speaking, “drudgery” in his native Czech, leading to its use in a wide range of science fiction writing2. Since then, robots continue to fascinate the mind, appearing both in villainous roles, such as the cyborg assassin in Terminator, or as mechanoid heroes, such as the diligent sentient garbage collector WALL-E. Major advances in industrial robots came about in the 1970s, with KUKA delivering an arm with six electromechanically driven axes known as FAMULUS3. Since then, it is impossible to imagine a world without robots, with them being used to build and paint cars, lift huge work pieces in factories, explore Mars, and even participate in surgical procedures. Today’s robots mostly remain fenced off, protecting the human workforce from these immensely powerful machines. This is because they typically only execute predefined motion, unaware of the environment within which they operate. However, robotic devices are increasingly interacting more closely with humans, taking on new forms and roles as the costs associated with their design and electronics drop.

Received 19 June 2018; received in revised form 2 September 2018; accepted 29 October 2018 KEYWORDS Abstract. In this study, a SCARA Prismatic-Revolute-Revolute-type (PRR) robot manipulator is designed and implemented. Firstly, the SCARA robot is designed in SCARA robot; accordance with the mechanical calculations. Then, forward and inverse kinematic Real-time control; equations of the robot are derived by using D-H parameters and analytical methods. The Modelling; software is developed according to the obtained Cartesian velocities from joint velocities Simulation; and joint velocities from Cartesian velocities. The trajectory planning is designed using Prismatic-Revolute- the calculated kinematic equations, and the simulation is performed in MATLAB VRML Revolute (PRR); environment. A stepping motor is used for the prismatic joint of the robot, and servo Servo motor. motors are used for revolute joints. While most of the SCARA robot studies focus on the Revolute-Revolute-Prismatic -type (RRP) servo control strategy, this work focuses on PRR-type and both stepper and servo control structures. The objects in the desired points of the workspace are picked and placed to another desired point synchronously with the simulation. Therefore, the performance of the robot is examined experimentally. © 2020 Sharif University of Technology. All rights reserved.
