ABSTRACT

The MRO (Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul) industry expected economic growth is severely limited by the high human injury and death toll rates, mainly associated to harsh working environment and scarcity of unmanned support solutions. The present work introduces an advanced mobile robotic platform that is capable of providing a clear response to key MRO barriers being designed to climb vertical surfaces and operating in harsh environment while executing inspection and repairing tasks. The paper outlines the integrated design procedure supporting the engineering of the mobile platform; the benefits of the solution have been addressed and validated with regard to real world operating scenarios.

摘要

MRO（维护、修理和大修）行业预期的经济增长受到高人伤和死亡人数的严重限制，这主要与恶劣的工作环境和无人支持解决方案的稀缺有关。目前的工作引入了一种先进的移动机器人平台，该平台能够对关键的 MRO 障碍提供明确的响应，这些障碍旨在爬上垂直表面并在执行检查和维修任务时在恶劣环境中运行。论文概述了支持移动平台工程的集成设计流程；该解决方案的好处已经在现实世界的操作场景中得到解决和验证。
