Automatic Robotic Spray Painting of Low Volume High Variant Parts

چکیده
With the advance in IT technology sensors and processing power exist to achieve fully automated robot programming in industrial tasks. This paper reports on the EU-project FlexPaint, which devised a methodology to automatically generate robot programs for spray painting of unknown parts. The solution uses four steps: laser triangulation sensing, geometric feature detection, tool path planning, and the generation of the collision-free executable robot program. Demonstrations at industrial partners show the results.

Constraint optimization model of a scheduling problem for a robotic arm in automatic systems
In this paper,we investigate the problemof scheduling a 6DOF robotic arm to carry out a sequence of spray painting tasks. The duration of any given painting task is process dependent and fixed, but the duration of an ‘‘intertask’’, corresponding to the process of relocating and reorienting the robot arm from one painting task to the next one, is influenced by the order of tasks andmust be minim...

-The development of an autonomous mobile robotic system for on-the-road marks painting is presented in this paper. The whole system involves two main parts, namely, the autonomous mobile robot navigation system and automated road mark painting system. The focus is on the painting system which is incorporated into the mobile robot platform and executed within the same computing environment. The ...
متن کاملA Method for Automatic Spray Painting of Unknown Parts
Today industrial automation of spray painting is limited to high part volumes and robot trajectories that are programmed by off-line programming and manual teach-in. This paper presents an approach that uses range image data to obtain the geometry of an unknown part and to automatically generate the robot spray painting trajectories. Laser strip range sensors are installed in front of the paint...
متن کاملControl of paint overspray in autobody repair shops. National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health.
Commercially available controls for reducing worker exposure to paint overspray were evaluated in six autobody shops and a spray-painting equipment manufacturer's test facility. Engineering control measures included spray-painting booths, vehicle preparation stations, and spray-painting guns. The controls were evaluated by measuring particulate overspray concentrations in the worker's breathing...
متن کاملOmni-Directional Robot for Pavement Sign Painting Operations
The current pavement sign marking operations are manually carried out, which are labor-intensive. This method requires blocking traffic for a long period of time resulting serious traffic jam. Also, the workers are exposed to possible injury and even death by passing traffic. This paper deals with the development of a robotic system for automating the pavement sign painting operations. The robo...
