International Journal of Engineering Research and Technology (IJERT), 2014

https://www.ijert.org/design-development-and-modelling-of-forklift https://www.ijert.org/research/design-development-and-modelling-of-forklift-IJERTV3IS041632.pdf We describe the development of robotic forklift intended to operate alongside human personnel, handling palletized materials within existing, busy, semi-structured outdoor storage facilities. The main objective of this project is to fabricate a Mechanical forklift for material handling in industries. In this paper a robotic vehicle is fabricated which runs to carry material from one place to another by using Radio Frequency Technology. Nowadays in industries, forklift used with hydraulic system. To use forklift, it requires one spot guide to guide a forklift driver because of less visibility. This paper discusses how to integrate Radio frequency identification (RFID) technology into a forklift truck to make it wireless to increase visibility and human safety. Keywords-RFID Technology, forklift trucks, visibility and human safety.

Nowadays in industries, the forklift operates on an IC engine for transportation and hydraulic system for lifting and lowering of materials. Due to this mode of operation, there are many adverse environmental impacts such as emission of carbon dioxide and leakage of hydraulic fluid. This paper discusses how to integrate the electric system into a forklift truck to make it electrically powered which lift to 200 kg and elevate up to 6 feet.

Design and Development of a Package Delivery Robot

International journal of multidisciplinary research and analysis, 2024

This research focuses on the design and development of a package delivery robot, comprising an electronic housing and a storage unit. The robot is remotely controlled through a website, equipped with obstacle detection capabilities, and capable of unlocking the storage unit. However, movement is limited when the storage unit is installed on the electronic housing. The objective of this project was to build a package delivery robot that could operate in organised environments, such as universities and estates. The project commenced with extensive research on existing delivery robots, analysing their strengths and weaknesses. Based on this analysis, a set of design requirements was formulated, emphasising compact size, lightweight construction, and user-friendly operation. A custom control system was developed, enabling robot navigation, while sensors were integrated to facilitate obstacle avoidance and pedestrian safety. The first chassis of the robot was constructed using lightweight sheet metal, but turned out to be too heavy for the motors to drive, so the chassis was reconstructed using corrugated cardboard. To evaluate its performance, the robot underwent rigorous testing in a simulated urban environment. The robot has a speed of 0.5 m/s, and receives commands at a speed of 0.0068 nano seconds. It also consumes a power of 120 watts. While the robot demonstrated below-average performance in these aspects, limitations were identified, such as the inability to make left or right turns due to the shaft that connects the tyre and the motor being short. In conclusion, this research introduces a package delivery robot that has the potential to significantly enhance the customer delivery experience in urban environments. The robot represents progress in delivery system development and provides valuable insights into the challenges and opportunities within the field of mechatronics. The introduction, methodology, results, and conclusion framework used in this project offers a comprehensive understanding of the research and development process, the robot's performance, and its impact on the field.

Development of a prototype robot for transportation within industrial environments

2017 IEEE International Conference on Autonomous Robot Systems and Competitions (ICARSC), 2017

This paper describes the design and development of an autonomous robot for the Robot@Factory league at "Festival Nacional de Robótica 2016", held in Bragança, Portugal. This paper describes all the hardware and software components developed for a localization and performance of the robot according to the rules. The challenge consists of a table setup that recreates an industrial environment where a robot has to successfully transport boxes from an initial warehouse to the final warehouse. The destination to which the robot has to carry each box, depends on the state of the box, i.e., depending on the box LED color, even though in some cases the robot has to leave the box temporarily in the called processing machines (which are intermediate stations). The most significant innovation feature of this robot prototype consists of the possibility of carrying up to three boxes simultaneously while being able to select which box to drop. This project was developed with great success, since the team managed to reach the 3rd place in the competition.

Design and Fabrication of Battery Operated Forklift

Journal Européen des Systèmes Automatisés, 2019

The Battery Operated fork lift is an improved version of lifting and carrying the load which needs to be transferred from one place to another. This advanced technology has brought a new revolution in the mechanical industries and most commonly used in heavy Engineering companies. These forklift vehicles had revolutionized ware-housing practices used in the middle of the 20th century. For a long time, semi-automatic type of material handing systems being used. In semi automatic material handling, the system was manually controlled. The design of forklift has revolutionized warehouse work and it is practicable for one person to move hundreds of kilograms at once. These well maintained and safely operated forklift has made lifting and transporting cargo items very easily. The main purpose of this paper is to design and fabricate a forklift machine which is new and different from existing designs. This designed forklift uses a rechargeable battery which means it is powered completely by electricity. From the design of forklift, it can be concluded that this machine is capable of lifting a load of 100 Kgs. The findings of this research show that the designed machine can be used in small scale industries.

In today life there is wide of forklifts variety of forklifts from the large heavy loadings trucks to the one that works among narrow aisles forklifts have becomes one of basics transportation tools we use in our lives with all the forklifts in existence we find that there are some improvement that can be to bring forklifts to the better performance. We describe forklift powered by an electric motor instead of the IC engine using rechargeable batteries the main objective of this project is to design electrically powered forklift for material handling in industrial warehouses and workshops. Nowadays in industries, the forklift operates on an IC engine for transportation and hydraulic system for lifting and lowering of materials. Due to this mode of operation, there are many adverse environmental impacts such as emission of carbon dioxide and leakage of hydraulic fluid. Thus, this project aim to making the electric system into a forklift to make it electrically powered which lift to 1 ton kg and elevate up to 8 feet.

Design & Fabrication of Remote-Controlled Robotic Trolley

CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research - Zenodo, 2022

This mission is aimed at designing a Remote-Controlled Robotic Trolley, which could characteristic as transferring unit in isolated ward. The reason of this action is solely based on past two years We all have been affected due covid pandemic that modified the lives throughout the globe. In this pandemic health practitioner, nurses, fitness-care employees and medical group of workers and many others. Labored as frontliners. In covid isolation ward even with social distancing observed, food water and medicinal drug supply is energetic. These offerings are being provided through our medical staffs which at once placed them into danger because of their direct contact with covid advantageous patient. And we're keen to reduce this danger by way of permitting our faraway-managed trolley to roam in the ones wards and deliver these primary services. We targeted on designing and fabricating a movable trolley which can be controlled through Remote manipulate. This initiative was taken in the course of lockdown because of covid. To avoid contactless service. It can be used to hold medication, water, and meals and so forth. This faraway operation is programmed with the assist of Embedded C. An Arduino Mega is used for motion control and wheels used is Mecanum Wheels for motion in each viable direction. For actual time viewing, a camera is used. We can get admission to the actual view in front of trolley. For self-sanitization a sanitizer doling out unit is connected.
