Study on Automatic Planning of Truck-Mounted Concrete Boom Pump System

In many cases, pouring concrete automatically instead of manually will lessen the operator’s labor intensity and increase productivity dramatically. An automatic pouring system was schemed in this paper, as well as the planning of pouring trajectory. A simulation model was built based on virtual prototyping, and the impact of new automatic pouring system on the boom system was verified with the co-simulation method. Since the complexity of the work environment, the obstacle avoidance of boom system was analyzed and planned. A 3D program based on virtual reality technology was built to simulate the automatic pouring process.
