Defining The Problem

My team was tasked by our client, Daniel Barret, to develop a functioning model to simulate an automated industry warehouse inventory system. The workspace had an existing IRB 140 Robot by ABB and a steel frame fitted with racks to house the materials being stored or retrieved. A 3-axis movement tray was installed on the storage frame using steel wires, frames, and motors.
