Designing and manufacturing a wall climbing robot model
Main Article Content
Abstract
Potential applications of wall climbing robot are quite numerous, such as inspection, maintenance and cleaning operations of civils infrastructures. This robot was devided into 3 parts : adhedsion part, movement part and control part. This paper presented the design and manufacture of a robot model which was suitable for well operating at 0.2 - 0.4 m/s velocity, high enough adhesion and a adaptive controller. In order to operate robot, a negative pressure adhesion mechanism was controlled by a adruino micro-controller. The result of research showed that robot was well adaptive for cleaning in high building which was from 20 to 30 meters high.
