Prototipo de robot cartesiano utilizando Control Numérico Computarizado para la manipulación de botellas P.E.T. en el proceso de paletizado

Abstract

This project is related to the manufacture of a Cartesian robot that will be located on a cubic metal structure of 800mm per side, which can move freely in the axes X, Y, Z which will be used in the palletizing of PET bottles of 330ml, with the objective of improving the time it currently takes the staff (240 seconds), to organize a total of 16 bottles inside a wooden pallet having a productivity of 75 cases per day, for which the group will use the knowledge learned during the 10 semesters corresponding to the career of Mechatronics Engineering, It is worth mentioning that this project should be low cost with the intention of making it profitable for the Ecuadorian industry, which still uses human labor for this type of work, who are prone to make mistakes that generate large losses of money per year, which also affect productivity, For this reason, the group will demonstrate that by using this type of technology, it will offer not only monetary savings to the company, but also, it will allow to improve the quality and productivity, by having a robot that can perform repetitive tasks efficiently 24 hours a day, 365 days a year
