This study investigated the trajectory-planning problem of a six-axis robotic arm based on deep reinforcement learning. Taking into account several characteristics of robot motion, a multi-objective optimization approach is proposed, which was based on the motivations of deep reinforcement learning and optimal planning. The optimal trajectory was considered with respect to multiple objectives, aiming to minimize factors such as accuracy, energy consumption, and smoothness.

The results show that the required strains for obtaining the UFG structure by power spinning is only 0.92 when the initial microstructure of the material is in the phase of lath martensite.
