Designing and constructing a 5-axis manipulator

---

This thesis project has an objective to construct a 5-axis manipulator which is capable in reading the normal vector of an object and maintain its end effector to always have perpendicular position and constant distance from an object while it is moving. Robot arms, which are referred as manipulators, have been widely developed in industry for various purposes. Every manipulator has its own axes, which represent joints and the degree of freedom of the manipulator. This thesis project concentrates on designing and constructing a 5-axis manipulator. The manipulator is equipped with sensors such as ping))) sensor and accelerometer to help the manipulator in maintaining its end effector to always have perpendicular position and constant distance from an object. This feature enables the manipulator to be developed further for various applications such as coating, painting, and welding.
