Practical application using the hexapod robot for interior inspection of a boeing 737-300 aircraft fuel tank

Abstract

This paper focuses on the dangers assoicated with the entry into aircraft fuel tank. The analysis will help to demonstrate that in the future a mobil robot will make this work easier for the human factor. There are number of advantages from this automation to make the job of the human factor easier and to work in a safe environment. The risk of contamination with harmful substances is reduced because we can put the robot to work. After detailed analysis of the working environment to which a mechanic is exposed in the aviation world, it has come to light that the introduction of a robot makes it minimal. I tried to analyze several types of mobile robots, and after this analysis I decided that the most suitable mobile robot is the hexapod.
