Wall tiles of the vessel idealized as rectangular grids on a surface are to be inspected and an attempt is made to replace the damaged tiles during shutdown periods of the machine. The vision sensing methodology of the proposed arm is explained. The arm has a camera located at the wrist (eye-in-hand) and the control action has to be taken place at joint level. The preliminary results are only illustrated.

The mechanism of wrist provides compactness and high torque capacity in gripping. The wrist has pitch and roll as two degrees of freedom. The holding task is guided by using a bell-crank lever-slider mechanism operated with a low-torque rating motor providing sliding motion to fingers. The gripper is considered as a class of unknown nonlinear discrete-time system. The gripper mechanism is implemented for unscrewing a square headed screw on the wall-tiles of a fusion reactor vessel. Various stages of this handling task are explained in detail with theoretical modeling.
