Design of a Position Control Based on Cuckoo Search Tuning for a Cutter Leaves Robot

In vitro culture is constituted by four phases. Cutting is the most important step and where the application of technological advances are important tools to provide the laboratory specialists working with plant tissue. To accomplish this objective, a Cartesian robot of three degrees of freedom was developed using electronic technology using Arduino and programmed with MATLAB GUIDE. The performance of the position control of the Cartesian robot was evaluated using two ways of tuning, the maximum and the method of bio-inspired optimization Seacrh Cuckoo (CS). Mechanical efficiency declines with maximum robot tuning, while the CS adjustment algorithm helps to identify the gains, increasing the mechanical efficiency of the system by finding an average error for both points of 14.5mm.
