Abstract

Generally, robot is a programmable machine that imitates the actions or appearance of an intelligent creature which is usually a human. As robot is use to replace human works, there are many robot application in the world such as in military operation, manufacturing assembly, biotechnology for sample handling, space application, and the others. The designing of the end effector will start with the criteria selection to make sure the selection is the best for the robot application. Since this project is to implement the 3 finger gripper for the autonomous guided vehicle (AGV) in pick and place operation, the design is considering the factor that might be influence to the whole robot design. After that, the process will continue to their control of the end effector (gripper) for the AGV. The process also been done for their programming and finally the manufacturing process to produce the real gripper. The finger gripper design might be operate in several grasping strategy which are spherical grasping and cylindrical grasping. The design of the finger gripper is actually consider to the object of the grasping which are the weight, the size and the appearance of the object (cube, cylinder or prism). So, all of these factor will give the result for the selecting component such as the drives (electric motor, pneumatic or hydraulic system), the size of the gripper and the weight of the gripper.
