Cowboi - Cooperative Welding employing Robot Intelligence In the COWBOI experiment, an integrated approach for a small lot-size human-robot cooperative welding systems will be developed, implemented and evaluated. The system will enable welding of small lot sizes with manual efforts reduced to a mere interactive, intuitive,...
DEXDEB
more
DEXDEB - Application of DEXterous hands for DEBoning operation The DEXDEB experiment carries out an application study of using dexterous robot hands for de-boning operations - a task that is laborious and dangerous for human operators. This pioneering study aims to establish a hyper-flexible work cell for the cutting,...
dimRob
more
dimRob - Robotics on construction site - dimensional tolerance handling The dimRob experiment aims to examine and demonstrate strategies for handling imprecision and tolerances in construction work. These deviations and tolerances are unique –because they are at the construction site, where the product (i.e. the building)...
EASYPRO
more
EASYPRO - Accurate Manual Guided robot programming While static robot programs may be sufficient for high volume part manufacturers, they are not adequate in one-off or small-batch manufacturing. The result is that industrial robots are hardly ever used for small- batch and one-off manufacturing. The objective of this...
EXECELL
more
EXECELL - Experimental Evaluation of Advanced Sensor-Based Supervision and Work Cell Integration Strategies Robots currently used in industrial applications are located behind fences in order to prevent contact between humans and robots and to ensure safety. Increasingly, however, there is a need for a new class of service...
FIDELIO
more
FIDELIO - FIxtureless DEburring of wheeLs by human demonstratIOn Modern industrial robots are complex and powerful machines, able to execute a variety of different tasks with high speed and accuracy. Nevertheless, they still have a low degree of autonomy and adaptability, and need the presence of a human operator to learn...
