Question

▪ Identify the type of robot manipulators, type of the end effectors and the required number degrees
of freedom (DOF) of the manipulators that could be implemented to perform the operations. Also
provide justification for the selection of respective manipulators for each task

Introduction
An industrial automated process is shown in Figure 1. It consists of two mixers, three conveyor to move
the bottle, two filling stations and a packaging area at the end. Four liquid types are mixed by two mixers
in different proportions for different bottled products. Technician can set the mixing durations and
proportions of liquids for a specific product. Relevant valves are automatically operated to keep the
smooth flow of the process.

There are few tasks that require robot manipulators.
1. After each filling station the bottle needs to be sealed, shaken, and then placed back on the conveyor
belt.
2. The bottles should be put in a box at the packaging area. (12 bottle per a box).
As a technical engineer appointed for this automation task, you are responsible to generate a technical
report to the Director of Engineering analyzing above scenario providing solutions to the following
questions.
