Abstract

This paper proposes a hydraulic-and-electric robot arm for mobile riveting manufacturing. A hydraulic-and-electric robot arm prototype equipped on AGV is designed with 1.5m stretching length, 30kg load and 250kg self weight, which is lighter than commercial robot arm products. It consists of 3 hydraulic actuating joints for heavy load and 4 electric actuating joints for force control. The hydraulic actuating joint is a 3-layer rotatable cylinder with higher reliability, lower leak and 360ø output. The electric actuating joint is an integration of AC servo motor, harmonic reducer, absolute angle sensor and precise torque sensor. In this paper, the hydraulic and electric actuating joint prototypes are fabricated and tested. In future, the hydraulic-and-electric robot arm prototype will be fabricated and tested for actual riveting processing.
