This research studied robust design of composite hand for LTR (LCD glass Transfer Robot). $1^{st}$ DOE (Design of Experiment) was conducted to find out vital few Xs. 108 experiments were performed and their results were statistically analyzed. Pareto chart analysis shows that the geometric parameters (height and width of composite beam) are more important than material parameters $(E_{1},\;E_{2})$ or stacking sequence angle. Also, the stacking sequence of mid-layer is more important than that of outer-layer. The main effect plots shows that the maximum deflection of LTR hand is minimized with increasing height, width of beam and layer thickness. $2^{nd}$ DOE was conducted to obtain RSM (Response Surface Method) equation. 25 experiments were conducted. The CCD (Central Composite Design) technique with four factors was used. The coefficient of determination $(R^{2})$ for the calculated RSM equation was 0.989. Optimum design was conducted using the RSM equation. Multi-island genetic algorithm was used to optimum design. Optimum values for beam height, beam width, layer thickness and beam length were 24.9mm, 186.6mnL 0.15mm and 2402.4mm respectively. An approximate value of 0.77mm in deflection was expected to be a maximum under the optimum conditions. Six sigma robust design was conducted to find out guideline for control range of design parameter. To acquire six sigma level reliability, the standard deviation of design parameter should be con trolled within $2{\%}$ of average design value

This study proposes a new technique to design and control of robot hand gripper for assembling and disassembling of a machine parts. The motion equation describing dynamics of the manipulators and object together with geometric constraint is formulated by Lagrange-Euler's equation. And the problems of controlling both the grasping force and the rotation angle of the grasped object under the constraints are analyzed. The effect of geometric constraints and a method of computer simulation for overall system is verified. Finally, it is illustrated that even in case of there exists a sensory feedback from sensing data of the rotational angle of the object to command inputs control of joint and this feedback connection from sensing data to control grasping of machinery parts.

In the semiconductor and display device production processes, the handling of sensitive objects needs new carrying technology. Floating carrying motion is a practical alternative solution for non-contact handling of parts and substrates. This paper presents a study of through paths inside the air pressure pick-up head to generate the floating motion. The air motion by conceptual designed paths inside the head gradually develops positive pressure and vacuum between narrow objects. Positive pressure occurs through the head tip before discharging outside of the head. Negative pressure is developed by evacuating the inside head bottom as result of the radial flow connecting the vertical through-holes. The numerical analysis was done to figure out the stable levitation caused by the two acting forces between surfaces. In comparing with the standard case that the levitation gap gets 0.7-0.9 mm, it confirms the suggested head characteristics to show floating capacity in accordance with the head size, number of through-hole, and locations of through-hole in succession of conceptual design for a prototype.

As a basic experiment for robot hand for transplanting plug seedling, the experimental robot hand system which moves up and downward vertically, and allows hand blade to open and close was made. The system was constructed with the robot hand mechanism, the tray, the plug seedling, and the measuring equipments. The penetrating force and holding efficiency were analyzed according to the soil moisture and the variation of hand blade angle. The highest holding efficiency could be obtained at the penetrating angle of approximately from 0 to 0.36 degree and at the moisture content of soil from 71% to 75%. The external force acted on the robot hand should maximum force when the robot hand was penetrated to soil, minimum of approximately 30.4 N when the penetrating angle was 0$^{\circ}$ and moisture content was 66-70%. It was increased with increasing or decreasing the Penetrating angle from 0 degree and also with increasing or decreasing the moisture content of soil from 66-70%. For optimal design of the robot hand and manipulator, the external force acted on robot hand had to be based on the returning force of soil, when the robot hand was penetrated to the soil. In consideration of safety ratio, the appropriate external force seemed to be 39-49 N.

This paper is the development of industrial robotic hand system and the design methods of industrial robot hand that can mimic human fingers motion. In order to overcome problems incurred during the reduction of the mobility, this study focuses on analyzing human hand structure and finger movements from an anatomical point of view. As a result, distinctive features that improve the discovered stability in constraints for range of motion in the fingers is reflected in this design concept. A 4-bar Linkage is used in robot finger structure. Lastly, there were experiments to inspect the developed robot hands performance. The developed robot hand has many potential applications and can be in many different fields.

본 연구는 시설재배에서 참외를 수확할 수 있는 로봇의 엔드이펙터를 개발하기 위한 전단계로서, 참외의 엔드이펙트 중에서 소프트 핸드링이 가능한 그립퍼와 참외줄기를 절단하는 커터를 설계하기 위해 참외의 기하학, 압축, 절단, 마찰 특성 등을 분석하였다. 그 결과 참외의 길이는 평균 108mm, 직경은 중간지점에서 평균 70mm, 중량은 평균 188g, 부피는 평균 333mL, 진원도는 평균 3.8mm로 나타났다. 참외의 중량(W)에 대하여 길이(L)와 직경(D2)을 변수로 하는 식 $W=L^a{\times}D_2^b$로부터 비선형 회귀분석을 실시한 결과 a는 2.0279, b는 -0.9998의 상수값을 가지는 상관관계가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 참외줄기의 지름은 평균 3.8mm이며, 참외 줄기는 중심으로부터 반경 5mm 범위 내에서 대부분 분포하였다. 참외의 항복치와 압축강도, 경도의 평균값은 각각 $36.5N/cm^2$, $185.7N/cm^2$, $636.7N/cm^2$이며, 참외 줄기의 절단력과 절단강도는 각각 $2.87{\times}10^{-2}N$와 $5.60N/cm^2$로 나타났다. 참외의 마찰계수는 고무가 0.609으로 가장 높게 나타났고, 그 다음으로 알루미늄이 0.393, 스테인레스강이 0.177, 테프론이 0.079로 나타났다. 분석된 자료를 토대로 엔드이펙터 설계시 동작에 따른 위치 오차와 안전율을 감안하여, 그립퍼의 및 커터의 크기, 선회반경, 설치위치, 구동모터의 동력, 재료 및 재질의 선정 등에 적용할 수 있을 것으로 판단되었다.
