Abstract : The existing pick and place robots are used toper form pick and place the components on the assembly line. These components are similar in their shape and size. In this project we designed pick and place robot to handle a different shape and size and also irregular objects. The existing design had more numbers of actuators and mechanisms are used to perform the pick and place operation. Hence it’s become so expensive. In our design consist of four pneumatic actuators and single rack and pinion mechanism, within this we can able to achieve the existing results. While comparing to the existing robot cost, it is very less. Finally our pick and place robot can able to perform the pick and place the irregular components on 260o within the workspace.
