AUTOnomous co-operative machines for highly RECONfigurable assembly operations of the future (AUTORECON)

Start date: Oct 1, 2011, End date: Sep 30, 2014,

Several industrial sectors today are still using linear sequences of operations where the same manual and automated tasks are repeated in each cycle. This paradigm is efficient when aiming at maximum capacity and considering no breakdowns, but very inefficient in case of line de-saturation. AUTORECON proposes the enablement, development and introduction of a) autonomous, exchangeable and mobile pr ...
