This paper presents design of 6-DOF robotic manipulator for painting in automotive industry. The NX-CAD was employed as the software to model the robotic manipulator. Three questions were considerably taken into account before modelling the robotic manipulator and they include the following: ‘how to define the problem the design of manipulator is going to solve?’; ‘what is the purpose of the manipulator construction?’ and ‘what were the exact requirements?’, as first , second and third questions respectively. The robotic manipulator analysis showed that the manipulator is more effective in achieving task; it is faster than human efforts and in its interaction with the environment. Through this, it will help reduce health hazard associated with humans that do work of painting by them not having direct contact with the paint (which is produced by chemicals) anymore but engage in handling other paint delivery equipment. Correspondingly, the designed painting manipulator will create cost-effectiveness of labour in automotive industry.
