From CAD to Plug & Produce - A generic structure for the integration of standard industrial robots into agents (original) (raw)

Abstract

Industries of low batches or one-off manufacturing aim for automation that is competitive enough to adapt to new or modified products daily through in-house knowledge. A knowledge that focuses on manufacturing processes, not on machine function programming. To solve this a complete set of actions that utilize seamless data transfer from product design to a Plug & Produce automation concept is proposed together with a generic structure for the integration of standard industrial robots into agents. This structure enables agents to handle their local reference coordinate systems and locations relative to a global perspective. Seamless utilization of data from product designs to Plug & Produce will simplify and shorten the time of digital development through concurrently usable text-based and graphical configuration tools of a configurable multi-agent system. Needed data extracts directly from the product design as requirements of operational goals. Extraction of data from the product d...
