Application of Generative Design Methods for Improving Manipulator Designs for Mobile Robots

Abstract

However, reducing the mass of the manipulator should not lead to a loss of its strength parameters. If the manipulator is not able to withstand the load, it may break during operation, which may lead to the failure of the entire robot, as well as create a danger to the surrounding people. Thus, the study of the possibility of reducing the mass of the manipulator without losing its strength parameters is an urgent task, which will allow to increase the efficiency of mobile manipulative robots and reduce the costs of their operation, while not impairing the safety of the robot.
