8 Conclusion
The robot is made of the two different cross sections: circular cross section arm and
square cross section arm. After doing the analysis, square cross section arm made of
stainless steel will be the best. After doing the analysis, the circular cross section arm
made of carbon epoxy will be the best. Also, the results of static structural analysis
conclude that the deformation of a robot of circular cross section arm made with
carbon epoxy > aramid > stainless steel at 5 KN. Also, the results of static structural
analysis conclude that the deformation of a robot of square cross section arm made
with aramid > carbon Epoxy > stainless steel at 5 KN. Stress is usually developed in
the joints which are in the permissible limit. A robot with a square cross section arm
should be used with any material as it gives better results than circular cross section
arm.
