The Coupling of a workpiece Recognition System with an Industrial Robot

Part of the book series: International Trends in Manufacturing Technology ((MANUTECH))

Abstract

When manufacturing medium and small lot sizes, workpieces can automatically be produced by CNC machine tools. However, the problem of automatic conveying of workpieces to and from the machine tools has not been solved to date. This task can only be achieved by the application of flexible, computer controlled material handling systems, which are easily adaptable to different workpieces.
