Main objective is to optimize the arm component design. We have studied the existing design of the arm component and captured the initial design data. Later, we have optimized this design using honeycomb structure and found through analysis that the optimized design data is way beyond beneficial in terms of material, mass and the volume. The challenge now is to manufacture. We have recommended additive manufacturing to produce this honeycomb structured arm component, for various reasons as stated in the journal.
