Vision-guided fixtureless assembly of automotive components
Abstract
Assembly operations in many industries make extensive use of fixtures that are costly and inflexible. The goal of “robotic fixtureless assembly” (RFA) is to replace these fixtures with sensor-guided robots. In this paper, the development of a vision-guided RFA workcell for automotive components is described. Each robot is equipped with a multiple degree-of-freedom programmable gripper, allowing it to hold a wide range of part shapes without …
