Resumo(s)
This work was carried out as part of a Master's Degree in Mechanical Engineering at ISEP, in order to fulfil the requirements to get approval in an ERASMUS Project with 30 ECTS. The practical work was developed in a small company located at Gueifães, Maia, named Fundwell, being its core business the production of parts in aluminium alloy using die casting process.
The work consisted of cleaning, replacing, readapting and making the necessary programming tasks to make put a robotic arm perform unloading operations in a die casting machine. The robot is an IRB 1600 model manufactured by ABB, which was out of use for three years. The project started with the robot cleaning task. Then, the robot was placed in front of the die casting machine considering the adequate distances needed for it to correctly attending the machine, but allowing the access to the machine by workers performing the necessary setup and maintenance operations. Thus, the pedestal for the robot needed to be designed and manufactured. Afterwards, the robot was connected and placed in front of the machine. The final stage was testing the programme regarding a real part.
