Cambridge Institute of Technology, Tatisilwai, Ranchi, Jharkhand, India Abstract Application of non-convention machining is used in a sense that there are various types of metal like hard alloy, Nitra alloy, titanium alloy etc., are such that they cannot be machined by convention methods but required some special method/ techniques. Sometimes special requirements are need by industries. By using conventional methods of machining it becomes difficult to form such components, hence some non-conventional methods of machining have several specific advantages over conventional machining. Application of robots are being used worldwide to increase quality (high), accuracy, to increase the productivity and meet the production requirement of robot application such as computer aided design, computer aided manufacturing, computer integrated manufacturing, different application in production line, assembly line, material handling, use as service robot, military robot, agricultural application, Telerobots, nanorobot, mining robot, research robot, space robot etc. Also use of robot now a day has become famous in the field of clean room, Bio-Medical, Medical, spindling, Water jet, Transaction on Automation etc. In this study a simple robot port programming for material handling in FMS using ARISTO ROBOT has been done along with nonconventional machining of step-turning operation. keywords: Assembly line, sophisticated sensing devices, hazardous material, Automated guided vehicles, laser switched vehicles, Fahrerlose Transport system ,Accuracy, precision, non-convention ,machining. 1. Introduction The word of non-conventional is used in sense that where such type of metal removing process cannot be applied in convention process, there the non-conventional process been applied. Use of non-conventional machining or advantages of non-conventional machining are > Electrical energy can be used directly to form a material in shape and size. >In some non-conventional method the tool does not come in contact with work piece and practically no wear take place and thus fine finished product is obtained. >Precision component can be manufactured, where conventional methods cannot be employed. > Unconventional machining is not limited by hardness, toughness, brittleness of the materials. > Sometimes small erosion of particular shape is required on work-piece which can be easily be done by unconventional methods of machining processes. >Unconventional machining can be used for drilling circular or non-circular holes in very hard materials Such as stones, ceramics, carbides materials etc. >Sometimes higher material removal rate can be obtained by unconventional methods of machining. >Heat treated materials can also be machined by using unconventional methods. > Very thin section of work piece can also be machined. >Printed circuits can be produced where basic connection of circuits, consist of very thin metal strips attached Into insulating base. >In some of the unconventional methods of machining maintenance cost of tooling is totally been eliminated. Automation is the process of following a predetermined sequence of operations with little or no human labour, using specialized equipment and devices that perform the Production or Manufacturing process and control all of these. It is achieved through the use of a variety of devices such as sensors, actuators and equipment along with technique that are capable of observing the manufacturing process, decisions concerning the changes that need to be made in the operation, and controlling all aspects of it. It has evolved from the field of mechanization, which had its beginnings in the Industrial Revolution. It produces high quality of product with greater accuracy. Robot works integrates new and recondition robotic Volume 3, Issue 1, January 2014 Page 334 International Journal of Application or Innovation in Engineering & Management (IJAIEM) Web Site: www.ijaiem.org Email: editor@ijaiem.org, editorijaiem@gmail.com Volume 3, Issue 1, January 2014 ISSN 2319 - 4847 system for a wide spectrum of robot application such as arc welding, flux core welding, plasma welding, welding automation, electron beam welding, and plasma cutting and tig-welding. Material Handling robots applications are dispensing machine loading material handling, packaging, part transfer, press tending, injection molding, machine trending, order picking, pick and place and vision. Some advantages are repeatability, tighter equality control and higher efficiency, integration with business systems, increased productivity and reduction of labour. Some disadvantages are high capital requirements, decreased flexibility and increased dependence on maintenance and repair. 2. Objectives: To increased productivity, Standardized Product, Reduce cycle time, increased manufacturing flexibility and reduces cost of production along with high quality. Unconventional machining is used for difficult types of operations like material removal by using different types of machining with high amount of material removal rate (MRR). Use of robot may be use for semi or fully automated manufacturing process in lean Production (High quality at low cost). 3. Important types of use in Machining:3.1 Electro discharge Machining (EDM) In EDM the current may vary from 0.5 to 400 amp and voltage from 40 to 300v DC. The metal erosion takes place by melting the work piece at the required spot. The eroded materials are taken away by the dielectric fluid. The EDM has various parts like base, column, head, table etc. E = Impressed Voltage V = Discharge Voltage C = Capacitance of condenser When condenser C is getting charged from e.m.f, E, applied across it Then charged voltage of condenser V = E(1- e-t / Re) t = charging time R = charging resistance in Ω C = capacitance of condenser in farad V = 0.73e Discharge current id = V/ RLS where RLS = RL + RS = Resistance of lead + Resistance of s part V = V0 e-t / RLS c where V0 = voltage across capacitor at t = 0 Current discharge id = v / RLS e-t / RLS c Energy dissipated through the resistance RLS = 1/ 2 CV0 Maximum current in discharging circuit Id max = V0 /√LC where L = Inductance of discharging circuit Metal Removal Rate MRR α 1 v2 1 2 R loge [1/ (1- V/E)] Energy Discharge = 1 CV2 2 Power consumed ω = 1 CV2 * frequency of sparking 2 Frequency of cutting is approximately to 0.03 √LC In steel MRR = 27.5 w1.55 mm3/ min where ω = power input Rough estimate of MRR of metal =4*104 *θ m-1.23 mm3 / amp.min (where θ m is the melting temperature in °C) the amount of metal by a single discharge is proportional to the diameter of the crater and depth of which the melting point temperature is reached. Hence the method of machining, electrical energy is directly used to cut the materials. Functions of EDM are as follows: Utilization of whole energy by Appling it to exact spot Simple fixtures are used to hold the work piece. Very thin job can be machined to desired shape or size. All the operations can be carried out in single set-up. The process may be applied for the process of still, super alloys and refractory’s etc. Volume 3, Issue 1, January 2014 Page 335 International Journal of Application or Innovation in Engineering & Management (IJAIEM) Web Site: www.ijaiem.org Email: editor@ijaiem.org, editorijaiem@gmail.com Volume 3, Issue 1, January 2014 ISSN 2319 - 4847 3.2 Ion-Beam Machining (IBM) In Ion-beam machining is used for surface modification. The useful life of many materials depends upon how their surface reacts with environment. By ion-beam we can performed surface finished as well as coating of the surfaces. Surface characteristics can be modified by ion –beam machining at low temperature without altering tolerances. There are three types ion-implanters used during ion-beam machining are mass analysis implanter, nitrogen implanters and plasma sources implanters. 3.3 Electro Chemical Machining (ECM) In this process an electrolytic cell is formed by the anode (work piece) and the cathode (tool) in the midst of a flowing electrolyte. The metal is removed by controlled dissolution on the anode according to faradays law of electrolysis. 3.3.1Metal Removal Rate: (MRR) According to Faraday’s first law of electrolysis, Mass of ion liberated by a substance, M = ZIt Where, Z = constant known as electro chemical equivalent of the substance I = Current following through the electrolytic cell in amperes t = time in sec According to Faraday’s second law of electrolysis, M = equivalent weight of a substance dissolved = Atomic weight of material in gms / Valency of material dissolved = At / v = Zit = (It / F) * (At / v) Where “F” is the Faraday’s constant = 96500 Coulombs = 26.8 amperes Metal Removal Rate (MRR) = (M / Aρt) Where, A= mechanical area in cm2 ρ = density of work piece in gm/cm3 The advantages of ECM are as follows. The tool does not come in contact with work piece. Metal removal rate is very high. It can be removed at the rate of 550 mm3 /Sec. Surface finish is very good as it can finish up to 0.4µm by rotation of work piece per tool. Thin materials up to 0.5mm can also be machined. The surface finished can be affected by selective dissolution, breakdown of anodic film etc. Huge amount of energy been consumed. 3.4 Abrasive Jet Machining (AJM) In this process a focused stream of abrasive partials (10 to 40 µ), carried by high pressure gas or air at a velocity of 200 to 400 meters/sec is impinged on work piece by a nozzle the material is removed by erosion due to high velocity of abrasive partials. This process can be easily controlled to maintain metal removal rate and best suited for machining of super alloys and refractory’s types of materials. Hence the abrasive of particles are used to Al2o3, SiC size of the particles used are 15 to 20µm. 3.4.1 Metal Removal Rate (MRR) MRR = KNd3 v3/2 (ρ / 12 H) 3/4 K = constant N = number of particles d = mean diameter of abrasive particles ρ = density of abrasive particle H = hardness of work piece v = velocity of abrasive particles For glass cutting the MRR = 16 mm3/ min 3.4.2 Advantages 1. High grain size produces more metal removal. 2. This process can easily control to vary material removal rate. 3. This process is best suitable for machining super alloys. 4. The material cutting action is cool as the gas used serves as coolant. 4.

Manufacturing in Robotics 4.1.6 Automated Guided Vehicles: <AGV> Automated guided vehicles (AGVs) increase efficiency and reduce costs by helping to automate a manufacturing facility or warehouse. The AGV can tow objects behind them in trailers to which they can autonomously attach. The trailers can be used to move raw materials or finished product. The AGV can also store objects on a bed. The objects can be placed on a set of motorized rollers (conveyor) and then pushed off by reversing them. AGVs are employed in nearly every industry, including, pulp, paper, metals, newspaper, and general manufacturing. Transporting materials such as food, linen or medicine in hospitals is also done. An AGV can also be called a laser guided vehicle (LGV). In Germany the technology is also called Fahrerlose Transport system (FTS). Lower cost versions of AGVs are often called Automated Guided Carts (AGCs) and are usually guided by magnetic tape. AGCs are available in a variety of models and can be used to move products on an assembly line, transport goods throughout a plant or warehouse, and deliver loads.

Today, two important devices exist which are proven space robots. One is the Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) and the other is the Remote Manipulator System (RMS). Use of industrial robot for “online” production process: This system is a totally free service and tailored to allow differing degrees of access and interaction. The main benefits and functions of the service are: a) Automatic notifications by email at the main stages of production as follows: Order creation Receipt of goods Receipt of artwork and/or where necessary artwork amendments and associated charges Paper proofing amendment and/or approval Pre- production sample dispatch, amendment and/or approval Completion of production or order cancellation Order dispatch Automated Assembly b) Direct customer and/or consumer interaction for things like amendment instructions and/or approvals: This significantly decreases Administration and massively speeds up the production process. It also removes errors of communication common with other forms of communication. c) Order tracking: During production our customers and the consumers can log in at any time to track the order status as it progresses through our production system. This facility is available 24/7 making it the fastest, most convenient way to find out information and the status of a job. d) Increased efficiency and lower costs: The resulting increase with efficiency allows us to minimize costs and so keep our prices lower. e) Delay notifications: If there is a delay of any sort the system automatically generates a warning email to advise all parties. This occurs on a daily basis. f) Future features: Future features of the system will allow for even greater levels of interaction, such as customer/consumer amendment of the delivery address and delivery method. 6.

Conclusions:Where conventional machine are not able to performed operation for a particular job or work with respect to material specifications, we can go for unconventional machining, such as Electro Discharge, Ion-Beam, Electro Chemical and Abrasive Jet machining process. Hence we can get very high accuracy of product. Implementation of Industrial robot in semi or fully automation deals with the optimization of energy efficient drive systems by précised measurement and control technologies along with high accuracy of product with high quality at low cost product (lean production) also. Hence energy efficiency in Industrial process is becoming more relevant in the global market competition.
