Abstract:
In this article, a dynamic pose correction scheme is proposed to enhance the pose accuracy of industrial robots. The dynamic pose correction scheme uses the dynamic pose measurements as feedback to accurately guide the robot end-effector to the desired pose. The pose is measured online with an optical coordinate measure machine, that is, C-Track 780 from Creaform. A root mean square method is proposed to filter the noise from the pose measurements. The dynamic pose correction scheme adopts proportional-integral-derivaitve controller and generates commands to the FANUC robot controller. The dev

AbstractMany industrial sectors face increasing production demands and the need to reduce costs, without compromising the quality. The use of robotics and automation has grown significantly in recent years, but versatile robotic manipulators are still not commonly used in small factories. Beside of the investments required to enable efficient and profitable use of robot technology, the efforts needed to program robots are only economically viable in case of large lot sizes.

Abstract:
SUMMARYA good practice to ensure high-positioning accuracy in industrial robots is to use joint error maximum mutual compensation (JEMMC). This paper presents an application of JEMMC for positioning of hexapod robots to improve end-effector positioning accuracy. We developed an algorithm and simulation framework in MatLab to find optimal hexapod configurations with JEMMC. Based on a real hexapod model, simulation results of the proposed approach are presented. Optimal hexapod configurations were found using the local minimum of the infinity norm of hexapod Jacobian inverse. JEMMC usage in hexa

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to explore a novel control approach for swift and accurate positioning and tracking of a mobile robot. Coordinated movement of the mobile robot-body and chameleon-inspired binocular “negative correlation” visual system (CIBNCVS) with neck has rarely been considered in conventional mobile robot design. However, it is vital in swift and accurate positioning and tracking of the target. Consequently, it is valuable to find an optimized method where the robot-body, the biomimetic eyes and neck could achieve optimal coordinated movement. Design/methodology/appr

The problem is to plan the trajectory with a specified geometric path, while allowing the position and orientation of the path to be arbitrarily selected within the specific ranges. The special contributions of the paper include (1) an optimal path tracking formulation focusing on the least time and energy consumption without violating the kinematic constraints, (2) a special mechanism to discretize a prescribed path integration for segment i

Abstract:
The joint trajectory of the robot needs to be computed in an optimal manner for proper torch orientation, smooth travel of the robot along the trajectory path. This can be achieved by limiting the travel time, kinematic and dynamic variations of the robot joints like the jerks, and torque induced in the joints in the travel of the robot. As the objectives of total travel time and joint jerk and torque rate are contradictory functions, non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm-II (NSGA-II) approach has been used to obtain the pareto front consisting of optimal solutions.

Mobile robots, such as Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs), are increasingly employed in automated manufacturing systems or automated warehouses. They are used for many kinds of applications, such as goods and material handling. These robots may also share industrial areas and routes with humans.
