Summary: | Industrial robots have a great impact on increasing the productivity and reducing the time of the manufacturing process. To serve this purpose, in the past decade, many researchers have concentrated to optimize robotic models utilizing artificial intelligence (AI) techniques. Gimbal joints because of their adjustable mechanical advantages have been investigated as a replacement for traditional revolute joints, especially when they are supposed to have tiny motions. In this research, the genetic algorithm (GA), a well-known evolutionary technique, has been adopted to find optimal parameters of the gimbal joints. Since adopting the GA is a time-consuming process, an artificial neural network (ANN) architecture has been proposed to model the behavior of the GA. The result shows that the proposed ANN model can be used instead of the complex and time-consuming GA in the process of finding the optimal parameters of the gimbal joint. |
