MFG 333 - Six Station PLC Programming (1)

a. Currently, you serve as a robotic engineer by a company, and your boss want you to design a robot in spatial space to satisfy the following conditions: i. Max reachable distance of the robot is 1 meter. ii. Only using revolute joints, connecting links and rigid load bearing links (the length of link is 0.5m). iii. The degree of freedom (Dof) of the robot is 2. What is your design, how many joints and links will you use? b. The payload of your design is 10 kg (each load bearing link can hold 5 kg, 5 kg+5 kg=10kg, the weight and payload of the connecting links will be ignored), but your boss wants your designed robots to handle 20 kg payload. How will you update your current design, and how many joints and links will you use in the new design? What is the Dof of the new designed robot.

I want to answer all the questions by handwriting.

Please choose the false answer(s) from the following statements related to CAD!   a. It can be used for programming of robots, which may operate in a workcell arrangement, selecting and positioning tools and workpieces for NC machines. b. It is a technology which uses computer system to assist in the creation, modification, analysis and optimization of a design. c. Geometry can be used as a basis for other functions in CAE and CAM, saving time and reducing errors caused by redefining the geometry of design. d. Basic role of CAD is to define the geometry of design (computer aided drafting, and geometric modelling are the most important component of CAD).

Q1: A. One of the researchers discovered a patent related to the development of a certain software module in mobile devices, and when he emailed one of the companies producing these devices, they asked him to send the research to try it on their devices, and after a while this researcher discovered that his discovery was used by this company without referring to him or buying this discovery, What do you think about the above. B. As a quality control engineer in one of the electrical appliance factories, I discovered that the technical worker responsible for inspecting one of these products seals its validity without inspecting it. when I filed a complaint with the administration, the administration neglected the complaint, arguing that there was no time to inspect it again due to lack of time to prepare the consumer. 1. What are the consequences of this action, it is possible that there is a bad in the product due to lack of examination. 2. The actions that you should take because of…

Sensor systems for obstacle detection and avoidance in mobile robots. • Produce a written report documenting: the choice of sensors, sensor evaluation, the developed processor/measurement system, and overall system performance.

Your capstone design team is prototyping (e.g. you are building a model to test not a final product) a "fire identification drone. The final product is intended to fly over rugged wilderness areas and look for small fires that should be monitored and potentially fought or contained. It is NOT intended to be used in large active fires. Your subteam's job is to design and build the support frame for the drone (e.g. the structure where the motors, propellers, guidance electronics and GPS, heat sensors, radio receiver and transmitter, etc. are attached) for the prototype. You have access to a machine shop with saws, lathes (for removing material by rotating it and using a cutting tool), drills and a facility with 3-D printers that can print a variety of plastics using fused deposition modeling (this is the technique where a polymer filament is melted and forced through a nozzle to build a structure layer by layer). You will be testing in a summer/fall timeframe so you expect temperatures…

Problem 3: A small gearing system in your brand-new 3D printer fails as you were printing, leading to an overload in the motor and a fire in your home. The fire spreads, burning half of Everglades National Park in the worst environmental disaster in US history. The printer company blames you! Stating that you must have been misusing the printer some- how. Use your engineering knowledge to "show those jerks you mean business!" You investigate and find a serial number on the gears and type it into Google, finding the company that manufactures the gears. Their website provides some info that this series of gear is made from AISI 4340 steel and the yield strength is 125 kpsi. Assuming each gear tooth acts as a small cantilever, prove to the 3D printer company that they are liable for the fire. oct # Gear Information Gear radius (r): 1.00 in Tooth length (1): 0.15 in Tooth height (h): 0.15 in Tooth thickness (b): 0.1 in Angular velocity (w): 0.1 rad/s Motor Information Power (H): 0.009 hp 1…

An emergency stop system is to be designed for a certain automatic production machine. A single "start" button is used to turn on the power to the machine at the beginning of the day. In addition, there are three "stop" buttons located at different locations around the machine, any one of which can be pressed to immediately turn off power to the machine. (a) Write the truth table for this system. (b) Write the Boolean logic expression for the system. (c) Construct the logic network diagram for the system. (d) Construct the ladder logic diagram for the system

Investigate, and select appropriate sensors for the specified system.

Statics Problem !!! Help me Part A , Part B , Part C!!!! Answer it this Problem Correctly!! Please give correct Solution

reply to the jobsite owner effectivlr and clearl   I would like to explore the possibility of using a lighting control system. There are times when office staff works long hours and researchers sometimes need to be in the building on nights and weekends. Often times they leave the lights on which increases my electricity costs. I would like to be able to program the lights on a schedule and if the staff needs to work outside that schedule they could request a change with our maintenance staff ahead of time. Could you please look into this and provide me with some potential options.  Regards-Owner

You are assigned as the head of the engineering team to work on selecting the right-sized blower that will go on your new line of hybrid vehicles.The fan circulates the warm air on the inside of the windshield to stop condensation of water vapor and allow for maximum visibility during wintertime (see images). You have been provided with some info. and are asked to pick from the bottom table, the right model number(s) that will satisfy the requirement. Your car is equipped with a fan blower setting that allow you to choose between speeds 0, 1,2 and 3. Variation of the convection heat transfer coefficient is dependent upon multiple factors, including the size and the blower configuration.You can only use the following parameters:
