Next Generation – developing inclusive work with flexible robot solutions

September 18th, 2020 | by

Rollstuhlfahrerin bzw. Rollstuhlfahrer sitzt an einem Produktionsarbeitsplatz und wird durch Roboter bei der Arbeit unterstützt.

Person sits at a production workplace and is supported by a collaborative robot.
The Next Generation project aims to develop inclusive workplaces with the help of human-robot collaboration (HRC) in order to improve the quality of life.

People with severe and multiple disabilities usually work below their personal cognitive abilities. This causes great dissatisfaction.
For this reason, the project “Next Generation – developing inclusive work with flexible robot solutions” develops workplaces with the aid of human-robot collaboration (HRC).
The project is intended to enable people with disabilities to participate in working life. This can increase the quality of life as well as self-determination and positive personality development.

For tasks from industry, numerous companies from the Cologne area were asked to provide possible sample applications for the conception of the inclusive workplace.
In the process, two activities at Buschhoff Stanztechnik GmbH & Co. KG and at Cölner Hofbräu P. Josef Früh KG were selected. The conception and implementation can now begin. Further up-to-date information is available on the website of the Next Generation project.

Cooperative mobile packaging in production lines in the “Internet of Production”

August 14th, 2020 | by

Applications of mobile manipulation in production lines of the “Factory of Future”.

Internet of Production (IoP) has the vision to enable cross-domain collaboration in production lines on a new level. Mobilization of robotic agents and resources are the essences of the production lines of the Factory of Future. To enable robotic agents to react to the changes in production lines, we at IGMR are developing online motion planning and control strategies for mobile manipulators in dynamic situations.

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.
