Abstract

In this paper, the design application for the lightweight and insulation of the manipulator of the mobile welding robot for the closed/narrow space is presented. A variety of robotic platforms have been developed for weld-worker using a welding robot outside a workpiece for welding work in a complex and narrow space such as a ship or an offshore plant. Normally, The development process of robots consists of machine development, electronic device development, control algorithm development and integration verification considering application environment and requirements. In order to develop the robustness of the welding robot, the lightweight design of the robot manipulator considering the environmental conditions was performed in the basic design of the robot platform. Also, The results of the robot selection and validation, analysis and testing for the insulation performance and cooling performance and the results of the research are shown.
