According to KR CYBERTECH nano (nd), The robotic arm is designed for "handling small components" under any applications. The robotic arm has outstanding precision and boasts a "repeatability of 0.04 millimetres," allowing reliable performance even at high speeds. It features a "streamlined and compact design", making it suitable for various industrial manufacturing applications. Due to its "maximum freedom" of movement, the robot covers long distances, offering an extensive workspace to the "rear and a long downward reach".  One notable feature is the ability to install the robot "on the floor, wall, ceiling, or at any desired angle", which provides flexibility to meet diverse manufacturing requirements. The robot offers maximum flexibility by allowing the "integration of external axes via the robot controller". The innovative "K-PIPE-ES energy supply concept" further enhances their adaptability and efficie

Dear Professor Blackstone, I am writing to introduce myself as a student in your Critical Thinking and Communication module class. I am Vaishnavi, a year one Mechanical Design and Manufacturing Engineering student at SIT. I recently graduated from Nanyang Polytechnic in 2023 with a diploma in Robotics and Mechatronics. My interest in engineering started in secondary school when I first saw various innovative final-year projects using 3D modelling and designing during workshops and seminars. It piqued my interest to learn more about it and how it is done. My curiosity led me to study the fields of robotics and mechatronics. I excelled in 3D modelling and designing, using Inventor 3D CAD software to design mechanical parts. For my final year project, I designed a robotic end effector, which gave me enough confidence that my 3D designing skills are good to continue pursuing a degree related to mechanical design. One of my strengths in communication skills is communicating clearly,

“Communication skills are an essential component in the education of engineering students to facilitate not just students’ education but also to prepare them for their future careers.” Marc Riemer, Faculty of Engineering, Monash University (2007) The quote emphasizes the importance of having good communication skills as it allows and improves our ability to understand complex engineering concepts and engage in discussions to convey our ideas clearly without misconceptions. It also emphasizes that effective communication is important during the learning process and plays a significant role in preparing students to be professionally ready for their future careers in engineering. In the working industry, when we are needed to pitch our ideas to clients, we can do so effectively, allowing us to secure the project, which is critical in our future careers.
