Remote nuclear cask handling device (RNCHD)는 사용후 핵연료cask의 원격 조작에 있어서 안전성과 성능을 향상을 목적으로 한다. RNCHD의 한부분인 grapple은 사용후 핵연료cask의 이동 및 수송 또는 용기뚜껑의 개폐를 위하여 cask의 벽에 대각선으로 돌출되어있는 두 개의 trunnion에 삽입되어야한다. 그러나 trunnion으로의 grapple 삽입은 용기중심과 grapple 장치 중심사이의 위치와 방향편차 때문에 어렵게된다. 인공신경망은 grapple에 설치된 광전센서를 사용하여 용기의 중심으로 부터 grapple 장치의 상대적 위치를 계측하기위해 사용된다. 인공신경망 학습은 광전센서값과 grapple의 상대적 위치와 방향사이의 함수적 관계를 추론하기 위해 수행된다. 이렇게 측정된 RNCHD의 중심위치는 grapple의 자세를 맞추기 위한 제어입력값으로 제공된다. 인공신경망 학습을 위한 데이터는 grapple 장치와 trunnion을 모사한 1/2 스케일의 실험장치를 사용함으로써 얻어진다. 학습된 인공신경망은 학습에 사용 안된 센서입력값, 즉 새로운 grapple의 위치에 대해서도 정확성을 가지고 grapple 장치의 위치와 방위를 측정할 수 있었다.

Recently, the concept of automation is widely in shipping and unloading materials using the overhead crane for the enhanced productivity. In this regards, we designed an overhead crane that can be operated by operated by computer control system and installed this system at KAERI. In this paper, we introduce algorithms to find the 3D position, diameter, width, and rotated angle of objects such as drum, coil, and container. And the performance of the presented algorithms is tested using drum and container. The result will be useful for positoning grapple device such as spreader to objects in order to automatically grasp them.

The primary objective of this study is to develop a conceptual design of all-in-one attachment based steel pipe pile cutting robot that improves the conventional work in safety, quality, convenience and productivity. For this, the following research works are conducted sequentially; 1)literature review, 2)field investigation, 3)selection of element technology for conceptual design, 4)deduction of conceptual design and its work process, 5)technical feasibility analysis of the conceptual design and its work process. As a result, leveling laser and laser detector, plasma cutter, rotary grapple are selected as core technologies. Futhermore, a conceptual design and work process of an all-in-one attachment based steel pipe pile cutting robot are developed based on the core technologies. According to the technical feasibility analysis result, at least 76.8% of the respondents are selected positive answer about each device of the all-in-one attachment based steel pipe cutting robot. It is expected that the application range and impact on the construction industry will be enormous due to the increasing trend of the steel pipe pile market.
