Alternative Design of Manipulation for Maintenance Work in Hazardous Environment

Abstract

In a remote handling area for research and analysis we have to pick up certain samples from that surrounding or place some devices for monitoring. An unmanned Robotic vehicle can serve this purpose, but a lot of obstacles will be present in the path of the robot so it has to be so smart enough to avoid such obstacles. We have designed the Remote handling mechanism which will help it to move to the spot without getting damaged and carry out the given task successfully. Different Remote Handling Mechanisms are conceptualized, studied & designed in SOLIDWORKS and a comparative studied is completed.
