This project describes the design and analysis of a 6-link, 5-DOF welding robot. The current work is undertaken taking into account the commercially available smokie arm robot and with geometrical similarity a model is designed and analysed for stress, deformations and weight analysis with different materials and the results are plotted accordingly. The new design is implemented for better flexibility and portability with better working condition. The models are designed in CATIA and further the end effector calculations are done using MATLAB, stress analysis is done in ANSYS and Kinematic analysis in Adams. Kinematic analysis includes comparisons of velocity acceleration and angular displacement with respect to time. The results are plotted as graphs i.e., V-T, A-T, θ-T graphs. Finally results obtained are compared in reference to the Smokie robot and also stresses and weight comparisons are made using 2 different materials i.e., steel and epoxy glass
