Implementation of a robot control architecture for additive manufacturing appli...
Ribeiro, Filipe Monteiro; Silva, Joaquim Norberto Cardoso Pires da; Azar, Amin S.Purpose – Additive manufacturing (AM) technologies have recently turned into a mainstream production method in many industries. The adoption of new manufacturing scenarios led to the necessity of cross-disciplinary developments by combining several fields such as materials, robotics and computer programming. This paper aims to describe an innovative solution for implementing robotic simulation for AM experiment...
Welding robots
Silva, Joaquim Norberto Cardoso Pires da; Loureiro, Altino; Godinho, T.; Ferreira, P.; Fernando, B.; Morgado, J.Using robots in industrial welding operations is common but far from being a streamlined technological process. The problems are with the robots, still in their early design stages and difficult to use and program by regular operators; the welding process, which is complex and not really well known and the human-machine interfaces, which are unnatural and not really working. In this article, these problems are ...
Object-oriented and distributed approach for programming robotic manufacturing ...
Silva, Joaquim Norberto Cardoso Pires da; Sá da Costa, J. M. G.Flexible manufacturing systems (FMS) are essential for small/medium batch and job shop manufacturing. These types of production systems are used to manufacture a considerable variety of products with medium/small production volumes. Therefore, the manufacturing platforms supporting these types of production must be flexible and organized in flexible manufacturing cells (FMC). Programming FMCs remains a difficul...
