Title: Computer-Aided Choosing of an Optimal Structural Variant of a Robot for Extracting Castings from Die Casting Machines
Keywords: design; industrial extractor robot; structural variant

Abstract: In the present article, the solution for choosing the optimal structural variant of an industrial robot for extracting castings from die casting machines is considered. For this purpose, the process of extracting the castings from the mold is analyzed. On this basis, functions are defined, and a functional structure of the robot is built. Alternative variants of devices for each function are developed. The set of possible structural variants are constructed, considering the compatibility between devices and the possibility of performing more than one function with one device. The problem of choosing an optimal structural variant is formulated, and its characteristic features are determined. The main stages of a methodology and application software for the problem’s solution are presented. After an analysis of requirements for the extractor, the set of criteria for evaluating the structural variants are determined. The set includes criteria that minimize the production costs.
