Mastering PID Control for a 3D Robot Gripper in MATLAB/Simulink
In this Tutorial we will see how we to make PID control of 3D Model of a Robot Gripper Mechanism. The Simulink model is organized in two subsystems. A DC Motor subsystem which is model using Simulink blocks and a 3D Model which is imported from Solidworks using the SimMechanics Link. We use a step function to activate the DC Motor to drive the Robot Gripper and we use the Simulink PID Block to automatically tune the PID’s parameters. You can watch the following video or read the written tutorial below. Download the Simulink Model from the example here: Find and Download the 3D Model of the Robot Gripper Mechanism on the following link:
