1A2-A24 Robotic Automation of Tying Task on Tie-Dyeing of Traditional Craft

摘要

In substitution for a "tying" process by thread in tie-dyeing, this paper proposes usage of elastic cap with different thickness at the both ends. A cloth is pushed into the cap by a needle attached on the robot hand. It was confirmed that the cloth was tightened at the both ends of the elastic cap and the effect of the tie-dyeing was valid.
