Abstract/Summary

Repetitious movement of precise motion brought the development of pick and place robot in the industry. Industry that deals with hazardous chemicals or very sensitive materials like microchips, biochemicals and etc. The gantry robot can be divided into three modules namely the navigating through software, the interface using digital electronics and the mechanical, respectively. The first module presents an acceleration control system which controls velocity and distance through the manipulation of data given by the second module. A control algorithm based on the forecast of acceleration deceleration point is implemented on the experimental robot. The second module in return contains drivers for the motors, feedback and the interface which enable the first module to control the third module. The third module is the mechanical part of the gantry robot.
