Malmar and Sirris have successfully demonstrated the potential of a mobile cobotic production assistant (CPA) in the Recoprodas demonstration project, in collaboration with the Trinity consortium. The ...
Automation can relieve operators of labour-intensive, monotonous tasks such as sanding. However, this is hard to apply to small series and varied products. The COOCK project COBOFIN examines this ...
Workpieces often require finishing stages, such as deburring or sanding, to achieve the required final quality. In the COBOFIN project, Sirris is investigating the extent to which these operations can ...
The number of industrial applications for cobots continues to grow. However, many SMEs are hesitating to take the plunge, given the unclear ROI, especially within high-mix-low-volume environments. As ...
To relieve operators of labour-intensive, monotonous tasks such as deburring, automation can offer a solution. However, small series and different products are a challenge. The COOCK project COBOFIN ...
Malmar and Sirris are working on the 'Reconfigurable Cobotic PRODuction Assistant: RECOPRODAS', which will allow Malmar to automate repetitive and manual tasks. This way, operators can focus on ...
A new standardisation proposal from the ISO TC299 (Robotics) commission managed by Sirris and Agoria on a national level has been evaluated and approved. The new project ISO/AWI PAS 5672 expands and further specifies the test methods for measuring forces and pressures in quasi-static and transient contacts between the moving part of the collaborative robotic device and a human set out in ISO/DIS 10218-2 Annex N.
Metalworking company Malmar wanted to find out whether one of its products could be automatically post-processed. This was done to improve working conditions and increase the quality of the pieces ...
Decreasing the programming complexity of robots is essential in robot adoption, especially for high-mix low-volume production. While teach by demonstration has been the benchmark for many years, OLRP ...
If a cobot can be used for palletising, then it can also be used for the reverse operation: depalletising. This reasoning is not entirely correct: depalletising with a cobot involves a lot of things ...
Customers want products with an impeccable finish. Many steel or plastic products have irregularities caused during the production process which have to be eliminated by sanding, deburring or both ...
