Cross section group: Application Dynamics

January 13th, 2023 | by

 

The Application Dynamics team is made up of members from all IGMR research areas. This allows the skills in vibration analysis and machine dynamics to be optimally combined with the expertise and many years of experience in power transmission and robotics. This fusion of the Institute’s internal research priorities enables solutions to be found to problems that require both technical knowledge of dynamics and application-specific expertise. This cross section of knowledge is applied, for example, in the form of a needs-based investigation and exploitation of the dynamic effects of a system. The focus is on applications in robotics and gearing, but also covers all types of mechanical motion systems. The current research horizon ranges from kinematic redundancy and high-speed trajectories to the use of neural networks to extend the workspace through innovative object manipulation.

IGOR Tper: The Robot with non-spherical wrist

August 3rd, 2022 | by

The next generation of our robot is designed. The new robot is called IGOR Tper. This robot has a non-spherical wrist, that makes the motion planning for the robot rather challenging.

ReConBot – Ein rekonfigurierbarer Roboter

Durch die gezielte Beeinflussung der Roboterstruktur in Form von zusätzlichen Gelenken, können rekonfigurierbare Roboter synthetisiert werden. Diese zeichnen sich über zusätzliche innere Freiheitsgrade aus, welche eine innere Beweglichkeit des Roboters erlauben, ohne eine Posenänderung des Endeffektors zu bewirken. Dies wird häufig bei seriellen Strukturen zur Vermeidung von Kollisionen eingesetzt, wobei sich aber auch parallele Strukturen mit geschlossenen kinematischen Ketten dazu eignen. Am IGMR wurde der ReConBot als parallele Struktur entwickelt, welche durch die kinematische Redundanz auch für einen Strukturwechsel geeignet ist. So ist es möglich unterschiedlichste Konfigurationsräume miteinander zu verbinden und auch die Struktur von einem Vierglied oder Fünfglied zu realisieren, indem sonst aktuierte Gelenke antriebslos geschaltet werden. Der ReConBot zielt auf den hochflexiblen Einsatz in den anspruchsvollen Szenarien des Katastrophenschutz ab.

Manipulator-specific path planning for multidirectional additive manufacturing

January 20th, 2021 | by

In a joint research project between the IGMR and the ISF of RWTH Aachen University, research is being conducted on the Multidirectional Additive Manufacturing of metallic components.

With the aid of Multidirectional Additive Manufacturing (MDAM), it is possible to build complex components layer by layer and without the need for support structures. By moving the base plate by means of an industrial robot while the welding gun remains fixed, the component to be printed can always be oriented in such a way that support structures can be avoided. The major challenge lies in the consideration of specialized welding processes with external wire feeding and the use of sensors for process monitoring. This results in a dependency of the orientation of the welding gun compared to the currently printed path.
As part of his master’s thesis, Jan Wiartalla developed a path planning algorithm that calculates an executable and, if possible, continuous path within specified, flat part slices that completely fills the cross-sectional area. This is done robot-specific, so that the algorithm always takes the robot currently in use as well as its limitations into account. A standardized interface allows for the robot model to be easily exchanged and the algorithm can thus quickly be adapted to different test environments. The video illustrates the algorithm’s procedure in a simplified way.

Multidirectional additive manufacturing in arc welding process

August 6th, 2020 | by

In collaboration with the ISF, RWTH Aachen, we at IGMR are researching Multidirectional Additive Manufacturing. In this application for the production of metal components.

Multidirectional Additive Manufacturing enables the production of complex components without support structures, both in the classic FDM process with plastic and with layer-by-layer buildup in the arc welding process. At IGMR, the entire process chain of additive manufacturing is being extended to meet the special challenges of this process from a robotic perspective. This includes the slicing of a virtual component into layers, the subsequent planning of a collision-free structure, the generation of executable robot paths for filling the layers as well as the necessary trajectory planning.
