Task II
Hazard analysis:
One of the chief issues in automaton fabrication industries is safety factor. By utilizing the plasma cutting procedure, produces many jeopardies like smoke gases noise and extremist violet beams. Stain less steel film editing is more potentially harmful because it contains Cr and Nickel ill entailed country flammable gases may besides bring forth a jeopardies or hazards. Whatever the agreements made in the company that ‘s for employers and the merchandises otherwise, it will be given to a large loss in the production rate and company economic conditions, before bring forthing the automaton no 1 adopted the safety factors in the company. As the engineering starts turning so many safety factors are adopted in the industries like by supplying the basic cognition about the merchandise to the employers, supplying the helmet, supplying the safety jackets to the employers and employers are to the full trained how to get away from the exigency. As a engineering developed safety factors installed in the company harmonizing to the installing of automaton the applied scientists adopted the circuit interrupting system with the automaton. The system is attached with the control system, which is supervised by the detectors the detectors sense the robot place of the automaton arm and act harmonizing to the minute. If the automaton arm moving in incorrect way or outside the finish the detectors senses the minute and sends the bid to the exigency interrupting system one time acquiring the bids from the detectors it instantly breaks the connexion and halt the automaton farther action. By following this safety factor, it reduces the unwanted hazards, which happen from the automaton.
The workspace:
Before the automaton was developed the cutting operation was done by manus to make the operation it requires so many employers for cutting the metal by manus operation it is non possible to accomplish accurate cuts, it consumes batch of money, the production rate is excessively low and truth is low.

PRINCIPAL DIMENSIONS AND WORKING ENVELOP
Cuting procedure
Metallic element is the most impotent object in the present life universe due to its high strength and public presentation, it ‘s really hard to cut the metal by manus film editing. It is easy to cut the metal by utilizing the plasma-cutting torch by this it is possible to file away the fastest cuts and sharpest cut. The plasma cutting procedure consists of detectors, grippers, arm and torch. In this procedure inert gas moves out from the cylinder at high velocity towards the nose, the traveling gas consist of negative ions. When traveling ions came in contact with the metal, it produces the discharge because the metal contain an positive ions in it when gas comes in contact with the metal a electrical circuit is created in between metal and tip of the torch due to this plasma discharge is produced. The plasma is sufficiently hot to run the metal being cut and moves sufficiently fast to blow liquefied metal off from the cut. By utilizing that arc cutting operation is performed.
The map of the detector is to feel the metal to be placed and send the signals to the computing machine one time the computing machine receives the signals from the detector the operator gives the bid to the automaton to cut the metal harmonizing to the demand and the detector will non let the torch to run without the metal been placed. The gripper ( tool holder ) placed at the terminal of the automaton arm the chief map of the gripper it to manage the torch nearer the metal surface.

Speed of the automaton
Plasma cutting automatons have many velocities harmonizing to the demand. The maker provides different cutting velocity for all the thickness of metal measured in IPM. If the operator selected the metal of A?-inch, machine offers a good cut companied to the 1 rated at lower norm
If so operator executing a longer skins by automated cuts be certain to look into the machinery responsibility, responsibility rhythm is simple the clip you can continuously cut before machine or torch will over heat.
Duty rhythm is per centum of 10 minuet period for ex ; a 60 per centum responsibility rhythm at 50 mononuclear phagocyte systems u can cut with 50 mononuclear phagocyte systems end product power continuously for six minuet out of 10 infinitesimal period if the higher the responsibility rhythm U can cut without taking the interruption or spread ‘s
The plasma cutting automatons have a good film editing velocity, the automaton has to cut the steel or not ferric metal it consist of six axis like J1, J2, J3, J4, J5and J6 and operates at of
J1 moves at velocity of 150/s
J2 moves at velocity of 155/s
J3 moves at velocity of 155/s
J4 moves at velocity of 300/s
J5 moves at velocity of 300/s
J6 moves at velocity of 400/s
Detectors: Detectors are the religious system of the automaton the map of the detector is to mensurate the physical measures like contact, distance, visible radiation, sound, metal, strain, rotational magnetic attraction, temperature and height. As the automaton moves the microcontroller instantly receives the signal from the detector by the precisely location.sensor allow the arm to do or understand the necessary alterations in the workspace. Whatever signals received from the microcontroller will direct to the computing machine and the computing machine acts as a encephalon f the automaton, which provides the intending full information about the surrounding to the automaton. Sensor permit a automaton to hold a equal field of position a scope of sensing and ability to observe the object in the piece runing in existent clip.
In plasma film editing automaton uses a metal observing detector ( shield up detector ) which detects the metal ; give the information to the computing machine through the microcontroller the microcontroller sends the information to the detector which sends the bid to the computing machine. Once having the bids from the computing machine the automaton arm start playing. If metal is non placed in the film editing place the cutter that it will non get down the arc torch until unless the nose is placed on the metal. Sensor are classified into two types
Proproceptive detector: it measures the value internally to robot.
Excroceptive detector: it measure the information from the environment.

Gripper
Gripper is the chief portion in plasma film editing operation in plasma cutting operation alternatively of the gripper the torch holder is used to keep the torch ; the tool holder is merely like a cubitus type gripper. One terminal of the gripper is attached to the terminal effector and other terminal is fitted with arc gun. An improved tool holder arm assembly including a two-piece tool holder building that includes an arm clinch holding alignment pins, and an arm chief organic structure with corresponding alliance holes for having the clinch pins, and a agency for securable attaching the chief organic structure with the clinch. Whatever the bids received from the operator the arm act harmonizing to the bids, the tool holder is made up of such a tough stuff because the discharge contain a high temperature. It is non possible to accomplish any operation without the tool holder or gripper, by utilizing a tool holder it is possible to file away the crisp cuts and needed forms.
