Mobile dual arm robotic workers with embedded cognition for hybrid and dynamically reconfigurable manufacturing systems (THOMAS)

Start date: Oct 1, 2016, End date: Sep 30, 2020,

The productivity of the serial production model is compromised by the need to perform changes in the production equipment that cannot support multiple operations in dynamic environments. Low cost labour is no longer an option for EU manufacturers due to the fast rise of wages and the increasing costs of energy and logistics. Manual tasks cannot be fully automated with a good ratio of cost vs robus ...

Innovative robotic applications for highly reconfigurable production lines - VERSATILE (VERSATILE)

Start date: Jan 1, 2017, End date: Dec 31, 2019,

The recent trends of mass customization of products and lean approaches impacts production by a drastic reduction of production lot sizes. However, traditional automation and robotics fail to be competitive in such a context since all individual product variant would require a complete automation project. In addition, keeping up with the introduction of robots outside of the traditional sectors re ...

Rapid Reconfiguration of Flexible Production Systems through Capability-based Adaptation, Auto-configuration and Integrated tools for Production Planning (ReCaM)

Start date: Nov 1, 2015, End date: Oct 31, 2018,

The requirements on production systems are continuously being shifted towards higher flexibility and adaptability. The ReCaM-project will demonstrate at TRL 7 a set of integrated tools for the rapid and autonomous reconfiguration of agile production systems, both at operational as well as managerial levels, integrated with the existing production planning and scheduling tools (MES). This approach ...
