The purpose of the paper is to design a Wall-Climbing Robot. The robot would use compressed air to achieve a safe attachment to vertical, curved surfaces. The robot would perform certain tasks including inspection of the aircraft fuselage in very hard to reach areas by the human workers, riveting and deriveting, and painting the aircraft. It would have the capability of climbing on the walls of tall buildings while carrying heavy weights compared to its weight. The design was successfully completed. The robot was manufactured, assembled and tested by the researcher. The result of the research proved its validity by demonstrating the actual robot moving on different types of surfaces.
