Robot assisted framing
(2008)- Abstract
- The paper describes a concept for securing the geometry in flexible production based on robot assisted
framing. This uses the robot(s) as an active device during change-over between product variants and it is
assumed that product variants can be produced in any mixed order. The case under study is cabs for trucks
which in traditional production require large and heavy equipment which is above the payload of any robot. The
idea within this study is to use carbon fibre composites in the fixtures in order to reduce the weight and through
this make it possible to use the robots in assisting the framing process. The current work involves a
generalization of the principle both considering the... (More) - The paper describes a concept for securing the geometry in flexible production based on robot assisted

properties and design principles, and design of the production system. (Less)
