Description
Summary:The project pneumatic muscle actuator at insect walking robot covers the activities to design the legged section of the robot with pneumatic muscle actuator. This study is to investigate and analyze muscle actuator to choose the best design. After this process, the pleated muscle actuator is being selected and designed to replace existing products with muscle actuator legs. Lasted from the selection of this muscle actuator, work collecting data on these components become done. This work is done in order to achieve the objectives of this research and subsequent proof that the selected items in the case study. It appears that the selection of the characteristics of muscle actuator is one important matter to be considered in the process of searching the maximum and most appropriate to design the robot. After the simulation using solid work and control system by using Automation studio is done, the analysis has been carried out to obtain information about the walking stability and the mechanism of the robot.
