Development of a flexible robot technology for supporting cell-based production

摘要

In the manufacturing process of the HUTOP cycle, providing operation support from the viewpoint of the operator is an important issue. The virtual factory assumes a flexible U-shaped production cell. This research intends to develop the basic concepts of an experimental robot, which flexibly moves and supports cell-based production. Based on the flexible mobile system, the program-free visual recognition system is integrated to confirm each function on an experimental basis. This facilitates the development of a human-friendly cell-production support robot.
