Abstract

Abstract In this advanced technological world, robots play an important role in achieving the tasks of a human. Robots have become an essential aspect of the industry, need well-trained engineers to optimize the robot manipulator. To obtain the optimum elements of the work to be carried, a systematic approach required to design, simulate, and analysis of customized robots. This paper presents the design, simulation, and analysis of a 6-axis robot for n-number of applications using solid works simulation and RoboAnalyzer visualization software. The SolidWorks software is used to design the robot and analyzed using the SolidWorks Simulation Xpress and motion study. The robot visualization software: RoboAnalyzer used to analyze the robot kinematics and dynamics. This 3-dimensional software’s help to improve the skills and knowledge of industrial robots. Robot design, simulation, and analysis require the use of 3-dimensional software in the event of an invention needed to develop the high-quality design and improved speed where the industry needs.
