MODULAR WORK-CELL DESIGN
Our team decided to update the existing work-cell to a newer, more modular configuration. This will allow
future users to easily arrange the work-cell into a configuration that allows for many different
manufacturing capabilities.
TEAM ROBOSHOW PREVIOUS WORKCELL DESIGN
Our new design was created by building a standalone pedestal for each robot and then attaching work
"tables" that can be arranged in different patterns. The configuration shown below is a 3x3 square
that allows a worker to walk around the workspace in the manufacturing cell.
RENDER OF NEW WORKCELL DESIGN WITH ONE ROBOT AND A 3X3 WORKSPACE
In 2013 – 2014 Team Roboshow designed and
fabricated a work-cell for one DENSO VS-G
arm shown in Figure 1.1. Although this cell
worked well for demonstration purposes two of
its limitations were a slow settling time (being
"wobbly") and being difficult to reconfigure for
different projects or worker entry.
