TRANSCRIPT
Manufacturing systems can be improved by the amalgamation of the intelligent control systems along with vision and image processing systems. This project describes the machining of a component using vision based 3-Axis Cartesian robot. The main objective is to detect the profile of the object from the input image and determine its dimension for machining on the work piece. A morphological image processing is taken place to get the horizontal and vertical skeleton of the body then a spatial camera calibration is done to extract the profile and dimensions. A microcontroller based system is designed for controlling the end milling operation in X, Y, Z directions.

Machining A Component Using Vision Based 3-Axis Cartesian Robot
SYSTEM DESIGNED AND DEVELOPED MODEL
Cartesian robots are the simplest of all stationary robots to build by own. Cheaper than other ones and best suited for simple machining operations and pick and place operations. With the application of robot vision makes it more robust and cost effective as it doesn’t include any complex sensor or high end software.
