    Mechanical Pick & Place Mechanism

    Uploaded by

    Ranjith Thiruthuva Kani
    The document describes a mechanical pick and place mechanism. It uses a simple motor, pulley, and belt system to create rotating, reciprocating, and oscillating motions. This oscillation causes a spring-loaded tool to move back and forth, compressing and decompressing the spring to pick up and place parts in an automated process, helping to increase production rates. The mechanism aims to demonstrate the simple working of pick and place automation using common mechanical components.

    Mechanical Pick & Place Mechanism

    In today’s factories and shop floors, industrial automation is everywhere and it is difficult


    to imagine a production line without automation. Industrial automation uses control sys-
    tems and equipment, such as computer software and robots, to perform tasks that were
    historically done manually. These systems operate industrial equipment automatically,
    significantly reducing the level of operator involvement and oversight required.
    One machine/mechanism that is most visible in industrial automation is the Mechanical
    pick and Place mechanism. Pick and place automation speeds up the process of picking
    up parts or items and placing them in other locations.
    Automating this process helps to increase production rates. Pick and place robots handle
    repetitive tasks while freeing up human workers to focus on more complex work. With a
    variety of design options available, pick and place machines can be configured with vari-
    ous end-of-arm tooling options for use in different applications, such as assembly, pack-
    aging or bin picking.
    The Mechanical Pick & Place Machine, our project, aims to show the simple working of
    the mechanism. The Frame is mostly made of mild steel. The mechanism consists of ro-
    tating, reciprocating and oscillating motions.
    The power source is a simple motor. The motor rotates the pulley with the help of a belt.
    There is a metal plate with two slots for reciprocating mechanism. One of the reciprocat-
    ing mechanisms is driven by the pulley.
    This reciprocating causes the metal plate to oscillate. This oscillating motion is trans-
    ferred to a spring-loaded part through the second reciprocating mechanism. The spring-
    loaded tool is attached to the pick and place part. The oscillation of the spring-loaded
    tool causes the spring to compress and decompress which in turn causes the pick and
    place part to move back and forth.
