Abstract


This paper discusses the development work to design and build a three-axes Delta robot for pick and place applications. A 3D model of the Delta robot was designed using SolidWorks. The kinematics algorithm of the robot was formulated using geometric analysis method. The 3D model of the robot was subsequently imported into CoppeliaSim robotic simulation software to test the feasibility of the design and its kinematics algorithm. The prototype of the Delta robot was then built after a successful simulation test. To control the robot, a software of robotic manipulation and control was written in C# language using Microsoft.Net framework. Experiments were carried out to test the performance of the prototype. As a result, the Delta robot was able to perform its motion at a repeatability of 1.49 mm with positioning accuracy of 98.1%. In conclusion, the prototype of the Delta robot has shown high repeatability and accuracy in its motion.
