Modal and harmonic response analysis of key components of robotic arm based on ANSYS

To study the problem of vibration of harmonic response of robotic arm under the load, a three-dimensional model of the frame of the robotic arm was created in the Solidworks, then the model was imported into ANSYS for modal analysis. We obtained the frequency of natural vibration and the effect of response of the key components of robotic arm by above analysis. The natural frequency of the robotic arm can be kept away from the frequency of vibration of machine completely, and thus poor working conditions caused by resonance can be avoided. Next the analysis of harmonic response was also performed on the basis of modal analysis. According to the above analysis we obtained displacement diagram and stress distribution diagram of harmonic response. The analysis has a referenced value to design and improve the structure of robotic arm.
