Abstract

A chipping robot has a chipping gun attached to the end of a multi-axis robotic manipulator mounted on a powered, movable, platform that can be raised and lowered to access the underside of structures that may be substantial distances above the ground, for example, the underside of an elevated highway. The entire assembly is maneuverable under the work area and the platform may raised to access the concrete. Once the work area is in reach of the arm, the device is able to use numerous tools to complete essential steps of chipping portions of the concrete.
