dc.description.abstractThis Final Year Project (FYP) focuses on the escalating technological needs amid Malaysia's industrial revolution, particularly in the realm of robotics. The project addresses the evolution of robotic arms, emphasizing the pivotal role of Collaborative Robots (Cobots) in bridging the gap between human workers and automation. Despite the benefits of Cobots, a notable challenge persists in the form of rigid end effectors, limiting their functionality. The FYP aims to evaluate existing tool changer solutions and develop a prototype that overcomes these limitations. By intricately examining the reliability and effectiveness of the proposed tool changer design, this research contributes to enhancing the collaborative capabilities of Cobots in real-world applications, thereby advancing the landscape of robotics in Industry 4.0. The adaptive tool changer with lighter design, effective passive mechanical locking mechanism, demonstrated significant improvements in engagement and disengagement tolerances without any electrical components needed is successfully designed in this project.
