This paper presents a screw driven in-pipe inspection robot (IPIR) that runs on the principle of screw. The IPIR composed of a fore leg system, rear leg system, connectors and a DC motor. In this research work, a prototype of in-pipe inspection robot has been designed and developed. To verify the potency of the driving mechanism of IPIR, numbers of experiments are conducted through straight pipes, couplings, and 90-degree bends of 8 to 10 inches diameter range at 0-degree, 45 degree, and 90 degree inclination. This robot can be utilized for special tasks such as inspection, maintenance, and cleaning of water pipelines, gas pipelines, oil pipelines, and sewage systems.
