Project: Tool Kit for Robotics for Manufacturing Electronic components and Nodes using Digital Fabrication Technologies
| Acronym | TREND (Reference Number: MNET20/ICT-3761) |
| Duration | 01/03/2021 - 01/03/2023 |
| Project Topic | The proposed project “TREND” aims at developing a Digital Tool Kit (DTK) for smart robotics that would be relevant for Industry 4.0 & IoTs. The DTK will immensely benefit the commercial production based EU companies, where integration of smart robot and its advanced automation capabilities will allow sensing early damage, reduce manufacturing wastage & simultaneously facilitates customized products without the struggle to change the entire manufacturing workflow. TREND will focus on the challenges that explicitly describes the inarticulate capability of the industrial pick & place robots i.e. inability to sense product specific processing complexity & execute appropriate process regulation. We want to exploit consortium’s diverse inter-disciplinary, but complementing core-competencies in science & technology, by demonstrating the in-line implementation of sensors & multi-functional features to the robot’s hand using advanced IT communications. It would be made possible to smartly detect the product variability, anticipate process complexities & run adapted routines to follow-up manufacturing of different products without changing the production line & with very low ramp-up costs. |
