Internship is one of the keys for understanding more deeply the concepts learned from
formal education by going through practical practices adapting industries. And this
rationale brought us to Atlas Honda.
During our internship we have learned a lot about production of bikes and also learned
about robotic arm and design an arm to increase production. Every topic from crust to
core was explained to us and this report is an over view of what I learned. Information
in this report is gathered from different sources like instruction manual. Project
proposals. Online websites and notes provided by instructors.
This document gives reader insight of design techniques for robotic arm, which is
hydraulically powered. It also define a unique way of design a robotic arm by using
simple mechanisms. Interactive visuals provide an ease to reader for understanding
design of arm and don’t let reader to get bored as traditional text does.
I have tried my best to eliminate all mistakes and misrepresentation of facts but since
its natural for humans to make mistakes, so I ask your pardon for any such mistakes.

On the day of our first visit to Atlas Honda Limited, the Human Resources department
made sure that not a single moment of our visit of Atlas Honda goes to waste. They
took us to different departments of the plant or asked the managers of some plants to
give some of their precious time to us so that we can have an idea that how the
departments are working together in huge setup like Atlas Honda. The orientation was
divided into seven days in which we visited different departments or were briefed by
the managers of some departments. The schedule of the visits was provided to us. The
departments we visited are listed below:
3.1. The departments are explained briefly below:
3.0.4. Finance:
The finance department is responsible for carrying all the work related to accounts and
money. Finance department gives the salaries to the employers and manages the money
received from the dealers after selling them the bikes and money given to the vendors.
3.0.5. Logistics
Logistics is the management of the flow of resources between the point of origin and
the point of consumption in order to meet some requirements, for example, of customers
or corporations.
3.0.6. Vendor Procurement:
The vendor procurement department makes arrangements of the vendors. It allows the
vendors to makes bids by offering them the quotation. The vendor with the lowest bid
wins.
3.0.7. Maintenance:
The maintenance department performs all the maintenance works whether it is about
maintaining the machines or maintaining the plant. The production of the electricity in
the gas and diesel plant also comes under the maintenance department.
3.0.8. PPC:
PPC involves all the production plan according to market demand. The production plan
for the entire month is given to the shops at the start of that month. PPC involves the
analysis of the market which determines how much the production of the bikes should
be as per demand. PPC follows these steps to achieve its goals.
3.0.10. Stores:
The store is the department which is situated in front of the security gate of the Atlas
Honda plant. Store is one of the most important department for manufacturing, HPDC
& LPDC, casting and vendors. All the products that are made in a department are stored
in the store before being passed to the other department. For example all the castings
are moved to the store before being machined in the Hi-tech plant.
3.0.11. Quality Assurance:
The quality assurance department is playing an important role in providing the
customers high quality motor bikes. Honda has maintained this tradition for quite a long
time now and that is the reason why they are the major shareholders of the motorbike
industry in Pakistan.
The manufacturing plant includes the paint shop and the shop that makes the body of
the bike. The sheets are brought here and are punched and stamped to form the body of
the bike. The parts include the side covers of the bike. The sheets are then painted in
the paint shop to give the unique look to the bike and stickered to make it more
beautiful. Manufacturing plant also divided into two shops which perform following
tasks i.e.
3.0.15. Assembly Plant:
Assembly plant is the final department from which the bike passes. All the parts of the
motorbike are collected in the assembly plant and are assembled properly. The bike is
checked before it is sent to the store and to the dealer. This has been divided into
following shops as shown:

4. PROJECT AREA OF TRAINING
4.1. Introduction
Hydraulic Robotic Arm is a system which coupled by machines and hydraulic. It is
widely applicable in all kinds of large engineering equipment’s. Such as arm frame of
crane. The arm system of the redundant freedom, strong, nonlinear, coupled with rigid
and flexible characters. In hydraulic robotic arm the dynamic differential equation is
built with the driving force of the hydraulic cylinder as the main force.
By using the PD controlled theory without de coupling and rank decreasing only with
feedback from control of the arm and position pose and movement the relationship
between the hydraulic system and the end positions & pose is studied. The simultaneous
result prove the movement equation built by this way can clearly describe each dynamic
character of the mechanical arms.
A hydraulic drive system consists of three parts: The generator (e.g. a hydraulic pump),
driven by an electric motor, a combustion engine; valves, filters, piping etc. (to guide
and control the system); and the actuator (e.g. a hydraulic motor or hydraulic cylinder)
to drive the machinery.
4.1.3. Parts
In the mechanism, each part has been provided with certain degree of freedom to move
in a constrained way to guide other parts and also to pick up small weight items and to
place them wherever required. The complete mechanism consists of a vertical link. Its
one end is connected or better to say hinged, another horizontal link which is free to
reciprocate about a certain point in an up-down way of motion. To this link is connected
a sliding/ railing mechanism.
4.2.1. Introduction
In that work, it has been explained the classifications of the robotic arms which have
used hard, dangerous and high level sensitive works, according to unrestraint levels,
power supply which is used by the joint accelerators, control methods, sharpness grades
and codification with double letters. According to those classifications, it has been
explained the specifications of the robotic arms, usage fields, working spaces,
advantages and handicaps against each other.
4.2.2. Exposition
Robot has a meaning of slave or working in Czech and Slovak languages. Robotic
means the science of robot and it’s named firstly by Issac ASIMOV.
Robots are very functional manipulators which are projected for moving some
materials, hand tools or special equipment’s by giving then a series of preplanned
duties. Need of industrial robotand their use is increasing by computer supported
conception and parallely computer supported production.
Most important feature that separates the robot from the other machines is; robots can
be programmed several times and they have control system that provides to do more
complex processes nearby mechanic systems. In a word, robot is an industrial
manipulator controlled by computer. Robot science is a branch of instruction that
contains several engineering as electric and electronic engineer, mechanical engineer,
computer engineer and math engineer. In examples; mechanical engineering is curious
about robots dynamical and statically constitution, computer engineering is interested
in software part of robots and electric engineering is concerned with perceptional
concept of robots.
All the robots have a working space as to their organs and joints. That working space
is the open place where robot’s extremity functionary can move freely. By the help of
robot manipulator’s joint changes extremity functionary’s position according to main
shaft and find of inclination is forward kinematics; bye the position and inclination
knowledge of extremity functionary, found of joint changes of robot manipulator is
reverse kinematics. Kinematics is interested in act of objects. Robot’s strength sped and
acceleration analysis can be made by robot kinematics.
A robot is composed of prismatic (sliding) or revolving kind of joints which can move
freely by themselves and organs which combine the joints each other, revolving joint,
(Fig. 1.) allows revolving between two organs. Prismatic joint, (Fig. 2.) allows linear
movement joint angle is re-movement that consists of revolving in revolving joint.
Joints slip is re-movement that consists of linear movement between organs in prismatic
joint.
Joint angle is the joint changeability in revolving joints, joint slip is the joint
changeability in prismatic joints.
Fig. (1) Revolving joint Fig (2) Prismatic joint
Inclination of rigid thing in Cartesian space, transformation matrix and the location of
rigid thing are founded by locating vector. Six lack of restriction degree is enough for
reaching at any point in three dimension space. Redundancy becomes at robots whose
lack of restriction degree is more than six. Redundance can be defined as the place
which is hatched by two different joints at the sometime.
Station frame {S} the frame where robot makes all actions.
Wrist frame {W} it is the last organ of manipulator and the last ring of the chain.
Tool frame {T} a suitable component is placed according to action that we want the
robot to do.
Goal frame {G} the frame which is onto thing where the robot is going to operate.
For example;
If first there organs have a prismatic joint, this robot is Cartesian robot. (Prismatic
Prismatic Prismatic – PPP)
If the first organ has a revolving joint but the second and third have prismatic joint, this
robot cylindrical robot. (Revolute Prismatic Prismatic – RPP)
If the first two organs have revolving, third organ has a prismatic joint and all joints are
parallel to each other; this kind of robot is Scara robot. (Revolute Revolute Prismatic –
RRP)
If the first two organs have revolving joint and the third organ has a prismatic joint this
robot is spherical robot. Also if first three organs have revolving joint, this robot is
revolving robot.
Cylindrical Because main frame is revolving, speed They have small working space as
of tip functionary is high. compare to spherical robots.
Their kinematic equations are simple. Huge sized activity skills change
They have an extensive working space as according to arm length.
to Cartesian robots.
Spherical They have an extensive working space. Due to their complex kinematic equation,
their control is difficult.
Huge sized activity skills are different at
each point.
Revolving They have very extensive working space. Huge sized activity skills are different at
It is easy to move all revolving joint. They each point.
are very plaint and fast. Due to their complex kinematic equation,
their control is difficult.
4.2.9. Robots as their controlling methods
Robots are classified in two groups as their controlling.
Because their performance is not linear, their control is more difficult than electric
engines.
4.2.10.3. Stirring up with pneumatic cylinder
These kinds of robots are alike to hydraulic cylindrical robots, but their control is
difficult. Because, air is used in pneumatic cylinder and air presume is not enough to
provide the flux of cylinder but their constitution is simple. As hydraulic cylinder
robots, these kinds of robots are used for activity of joints.
4.2.11.1. Resolution
It is known that robots are controlled by control system. It is the arability of changing
for the signals that is sent to control system.
For example; a robot whose joints are placed by servo motor has a high. While a robot
whose joints are placed by hydraulic cylinder has a low.
Huang and Milenkovic have used sixteen unit of two-letter combination for robot
organs. All these compositions are useful and they aren’t different. A useful organ must
have an extensive sized activity skill in three dimension space; difference is that each
organ is different from the other categories.
Huang and Milenkovic haven’t found useful the codes; CN, NC, RS and SR. RS and
SR robots are usually used in industry although they don’t find useful and different.
The reason that these two robots don’t find useful and different is because they rake the
same area with CS robot.
4.2.13. Imitation
Imitation or simulation is an animation of physical activity by the help of programs
which are necessary at computer atmosphere before acting a physical activity. Robot
programs are tested with imitation programs before testing on true robots. There are
advantages of testing the programs. If robot programs are loaded to robot before testing
by the help of imitation, robot can damage itself or environment. For this reason, testing
robot programs (after software) provides time and Money. A good robot imitation
program could modelise the position of organs, inclinations and environment.
Online programming
Online programming is realized when the robot is at production position. It is used to
reach the tip functionary of robot at determined point.
Offline programming
Programming is done before producing the robot in offline programming and robot is
produced after programming. This type of robots are wed at repeating process. If we
want to do other action with the robot, first we delete the old program and it is
programmed again.
4.3.1. Concept
The basic concept used behind the operation is PASCAL’s LAW. This law states that
when a pressure is applied at one point of a fluid contained in a constrained volume,
then the pressure due to that force is equally transmitted to all the points of the fluid,
which are acted upon by the same pressure. Using the same principle, we applied
pressure to fluid in piston cylinder which is transmitted to other end of tube which is
connected to a cylinder. This motion of the piston is used to move the links or parts of
the mechanism which are attached to respective end of piston.
4.3.2. Conceptual Design
1.) The sliding mechanism used in the design, maintain its simplicity but at the
same time increases its efficiency, ability, area of coverage.
2.) Linear bearing and two hydraulic jack’s mechanism used to provide linear
motion. It works smoothly without any jerks or shocks and giving more smooth
work.
3.) A motor with timing belt used to get rotational motion. We use timing belt
because it has low percentage of slip and it also gives maximum output.
4.) Hydraulic oil having least compressibility and high efficiency is used as a fluid
in cylinders of jack.
4.3.3. Methodology
All the dimensions of the parts including their weights, their required job, are decided
effectively to obtain overall dimensions of the mechanism and allow required degree of
freedom and to obtain required motion and do the required task.
Material used:
Mild steel
Parts: Quantity
Plate’s 6 pieces
Shaft 1 piece
Hydraulic cylinder 2 pieces
Motors 2 pieces
Slides 2 pieces
Magnate 1 piece
4.4.1. Important parts description
The purpose of a ball bearing is to reduce rotational friction and support radial and axial
loads. It achieves this by using at least three races to contain the balls and transmit the
loads through the balls. In most applications, one race is stationary and the other is
attached to the rotating assembly (e.g., a hub or shaft). As one of the bearing races
rotates it causes the balls to rotate as well. Because the balls are rolling they have a
much lower coefficient of friction than if two flat surfaces were sliding against each
other.
Ball Bearing
4.4.1.3. Shaft
Shaft is a mechanical component for transmitting torque and rotation, usually used to
connect other components of a drive train that cannot be connected directly because
of distance or the need to allow for relative movement between them.
Shaft
4.4.1.4. Hydraulic Cylinder
A hydraulic cylinder (also called a linear hydraulic motor) is a mechanical actuator that
is used to give a unidirectional force through a unidirectional stroke. It has many
applications, notably in construction equipment (engineering vehicles), manufacturing
machinery, and civil engineering
Hydraulic Cylinder
4.4.1.5. Motor
An electric motor is an electrical machine that converts electrical energy into
mechanical energy. Most electric motors operate through the interaction between the
motor's magnetic field and electric current in a wire winding to generate force in the
form of rotation of a shaft. Electric motors can be powered by direct current (DC)
sources, such as from batteries, motor vehicles or rectifiers, or by alternating current
(AC) sources, such as a power grid, inverters or electrical generators. An electric
generator is mechanically identical to an electric motor, but operates in the reverse
direction, converting mechanical energy into electrical energy.
Motor
4.4.1.6. Linear Bearing & Slides
A linear-motion bearing or linear slide is a bearing designed to provide free motion in
one direction. There are many different types of linear motion bearings. Motorized
linear slides such as machine slides, XY tables, roller tables and some dovetail slides
are bearings moved by drive mechanisms. Slides use for sliding purposes.
Linear Bearing with Slides
4.4.1.7. Timing Belt Pulley
Pulleys are applied in a number of ways such as using forces, lifting loads and
transmitting the power.

4.4.4. Load Calculation Formulas
We can calculate load through this formula.
𝑊 = 𝑚𝑔
𝑚 = 𝜌𝑉
A = BH-bh
M = ALρ
By using these formulas we can calculate load and it allows us to select suitable bearing.
We can select bearings through by reading the catalog of manufacturers, as shown in

5. SCHEDULE OF INTERNSHIP PROGRAM
Horizontal high pressure die casting machines ensure the die closes completely. These
are rated by how much closing force they can apply. That can range from 550 to 5600
tonnes.
Depending on the metal being used, the injection unit that fills the mould can either be
hot chamber or cold chamber.
In hot chamber die casting, the metal is held within the die casting machine itself, then
drawn into the chamber and forced into the mould by the injection piston. These parts
of the machine are in constant contact with the molten metal.
In cold chamber process the metal is first melted in a separate furnace and transferred
to a holding furnace, then poured into a shot sleeve and injected into the mould.
These machines deliver light alloy parts with high precision, superior surface finish,
excellent uniformity and optimum mechanical properties.
The high pressure die casting process can also produce components with thin walls and
"co-cast” parts with different types of inserts, such as screws and liners that then
become an integral part of the product itself.
6.1.3. Application
Cold chamber high pressure die casting technology is ideal for production of a diverse
range of aluminium and magnesium automotive castings such as engine blocks,
gearbox casings, oil sumps, engine mounts and structural parts like cross-car beams.
The holding furnace is positioned in the lower part of the vertical die casting machine,
with the molten metal injected upwards directly into the bottom of the mould.
Molten metal flows quickly and smoothly through the feeding conduits, reducing oxide
formation and preventing porosity.
6.2.3. Application
This process was created for the production of axially symmetrical parts such as car
wheels.
However, by employing sand cores within the die, it is also well suited to producing
parts with hollow sections and complex geometries.
6.3. Gravity die casting machine
The goal is to fill the die with minimum turbulence through one or more channels to
reduce oxidation and foaming. This minimizes porosity and inclusions, giving
optimum metal characteristics in the final casting.
Gravity die casting equipment can have a vertical or horizontal mould opening, or
tilting technology with 0/90 ° or 0/120 ° tilting provides an alternative. With tilting
die-casting, the metal flow at the die inlet is controlled by the tilting angle and speed
of the die.
6.3.2. Advantages of the tilting gravity die casting process
One of the advantages of tilting gravity die casting is that it can produce dense, high
quality castings with excellent mechanical attributes like strength and stiffness. That
makes it very suitable for demanding automotive applications like brake system and
suspension components.
As sand cores can be placed within the mould, gravity die casting can also produce
parts with complex shapes.
6.3.3. Application
Gravity die casting technology is ideal for diverse complex aluminium casting
production of automotive parts such as: turbos, brake calipers, knuckles, engine
cylinder heads, engine blocks and pistons. It suits many other industries too, from
lighting components to kitchen tools.
Since a flux is not used, there is no chance for the entrapment of slag in the weld
metal resulting in high quality welds
The gas shield protects the arc so that there is very little loss of alloying
elements. Only minor weld spatter is produced
MIG welding is versatile and can be used with a wide variety of metals and
alloys
The MIG process can be operated several ways, including semi and fully
automatic
Used for
Fuel tank right and left panel welding.
The weld area is generally protected from atmospheric contamination by use of an inert
shielding or cover gas (argon or helium).
Relatively easy to switch between welding different materials and most TIG
machines can be used for stick welding just by swapping the torch and flipping
a switch. Most material use the same shielding gas (pure argon) and wire feed
is manual so you just pick up a different filler rod.
Works well on virtually all metals (including aluminium and magnesium with
AC capable machines).
Travel rate and current can be changed on the fly which is very useful for
complex welds
Conveyor Belt
6.7.1. What is conveyor belt?
A conveyor belt is the carrying medium of a belt conveyor system (often shortened to
belt conveyor). A belt conveyor system is one of many types of conveyor systems. A
belt conveyor system consists of two or more pulleys (sometimes referred to as
drums), with an endless loop of carrying medium—the conveyor belt—that rotates
about them. One or both of the pulleys are powered, moving the belt and the material
on the belt forward.
6.7.2. Advantages of conveyor
It is one of the cheapest ways to move material long distances.
There is virtually no degradation of your product caused by conveying.
The conveyor can have changes in elevation.
The material can be visible on the belt while being conveyed.
Belts can be loaded virtually any place along the belt.
The belt can have “trippers” to unload the belt almost any place.
Belt conveyors can have metal separators designed in.
6.7.3. Used for
Move assembled parts forward
CNC Broaching
6.8.1. CNC Machine: How Does It Work?
As discussed in the last part, a typical lathe comprises of a bed, headstock, tailstock,
chuck, tool turret, carriage and a spindle for feeding purposes. The following steps
define how this particular machine works:
1. First Step: After checking the machine for the working faults, a cylindrical
workpiece is attached to the chuck. Its position can differ as per requirement.
2. Second Step: Now set the spindle on the desired speed, thus rotating the chuck
and the workpiece. Major attention needs to be paid on the spindle speed as
any discrepancy can cause cutting errors. Check if the workpiece is turning
properly.
3. Third Step: Now locate the cutting tool at the desired feed by moving the tool
turret and carriage. Pay special attention to feeding speed.
4. Fourth Step: Remove all the excess metal by moving the carriage to get the
finished product.
An internship assists with career development by providing real work experiences that
provide students with opportunities to explore their interests and develop professional
skills and competencies. During internships, we are provided with opportunities to
apply what we learned in classes to actual practice. It is expected that we will also be
challenged to examine how our attitudes, beliefs, and values influence the process.
It was valuable time here in ATLAS HONDA PRIVATE LIMITED and we learn
unlimited here are a few point I have summarized.
An internship is:
One of the recurring themes in any entry level job search is lack of experience. "Where
do I get experience if no one is willing to hire me?" The answer is simple: Get an
internship!
Students planning to enter the permanent workforce should complement their academic
preparation with a range of other experiences, such as study abroad, community service,
undergraduate research experiences, participation in sports and other student
organizations, membership in pre-professional organizations, and internships.
An internship offers you the chance to learn by doing in a setting where you are
supervised by a work-place professional and have the opportunity to achieve your own
learning goals, without the responsibilities of being a permanent employee.
An internship also offers you the opportunity to work with someone who can become
a mentor for you - not only in the internship but throughout your career.
Secure Internship placements for students. The University should help students
to secure internship positions according to their respective programs undertaken
at the University through giving students recommendations in order to ease their
training periods and also avoid the ache gotten by students in search of
internship placements
Should continue with internship program, this is because it helps to prepare the
students for their careers in future and also enable the students to practice the
theoretical knowledge obtained during class be exercised practically. It also
helps to develop students understanding of work ethics, employment demands,
responsibilities and opportunities.
