“…Consequently, advanced control methods for different forms of climbing robots have emerged. Control of a legged climbing robot with negative pressure adsorption can be achieved using a predictor-based adaptive feedback control method [ 14 ]. Sliding mode control and model predictive control are typical advanced control methods that have been employed in some special forms of climbing robots.…”

Robotized intelligent manufacturing is a growing trend in the manufacturing of large and complex components in aviation, aerospace, marine engineering and other industries. With their expansive workspaces and flexible deployment, climbing manufacturing robots can create a revolutionary manufacturing paradigm for large and complex components. This paper defines the climbing manufacturing robot based on the application status of climbing robots and then analyses four key technical requirements: adhesion, locomotion, localisation and control. Subsequently, the current research status of climbing robots in these four areas is classified and reviewed, along with a clarification of the research frontiers and trends in each area, and the applicability of the relevant research to manufacturing-oriented climbing robotic systems is analysed. Finally, by concluding the development trends of robotized intelligent manufacturing equipment in terms of manufacturing dimension and scale, environmental adaptability and cluster collaboration capability, we clarify the major challenges for climbing manufacturing robots in terms of adhesion principles, motion mechanisms, positioning technology and control methods, and propose future research directions in these fields.

In this paper, a crawler-type wall-climbing robot with negative pressure adsorption is designed. The dynamic model of the robot is established based on the method of discretizing the force load of the track shoe. The correctness of the kinematic model and dynamic model is proved by comparing two different ways of virtual prototype simulation and prototype experiment. According to the simulation results of the dynamic model and virtual prototype, the influence of design parameters on the motion performance of the wall-climbing robot is analyzed. The smaller the speed difference between the two tracks of the robot, the longer the gauge between the two tracks, and the greater the inclination of the adsorption wall, the larger the turning radius of the robot will be. The research content based on this paper can provide a new design optimization method and theoretical basis for improving crawler wall-climbing robots and crawler vehicles.
