Abstract

This paper presents a spray-painting robot which has eight DOFs and can be used to automate the painting of a very large and complex surface. The robot is named as XN-600-2 with eight revolute joints which are independently driven by a single mechanical-power supplier (i.e. a motor). The developed robot is more compacter in structure than TX90 made by Staubli. We first present our robot prototype. There are four modular units in it, each of which has two independent joints which can move bi-directionally. Then, we discuss the strength and vibration of the robot, and show some simulation results when robot is in different working states. Finally, we discuss the harmonious response of the robot driven by the motor mounted in the basement.
