MATERIAL TRANSPORT TO MICROWAVE OVEN LAMP ASSEMBLY

Abstract

The purpose of this work is to develop an Automated Guided Vehicle (AGV) for the transport of microwave oven bulbs for white-line companies. In order to do so, it is proposed to project and implement a mobile reactive robot that transports light bulb boxes with of defined weights, this robot being a line follower with built in sensors to move, making use of the computational tool Autodesk Inventor for drawing and mechanical tests and the development of the software in a language based on C/C ++, called Wiring. The assembly of the robot began with the creation of the mechanical design with the intention of assisting in the management and supply of the white lines providing a simple and fluid management delivering the bulbs on the depot path to the production lines not requiring the employee to leave the working environment. avoiding losses such as time and work accident while loading the product. The results obtained in the experiments performed during the research showed that the system performed the movement in a stable and correct way, that is, following the line until finding the requested position.
