Virtual Metrology White Paper - INTERNATIONAL ROADMAP FOR DEVICES AND SYSTEMS(IRDS)

April 9, 2018
Author(s)
Ndubuisi G. Orji, Yaw S. Obeng, Carlos Beitia, Supika Mashiro, James Moyne
This white paper provides an overview of virtual metrology (VM) and the benefits it can provide, with cost reduction (both capital expenditure and cycle time) being the primary benefit. The white paper also examines some of the issues preventing wider

Enabling Robot Agility in Manufacturing Kitting Applications

March 14, 2018
Author(s)
Zeid Kootbally, Craig I. Schlenoff, Brian Antonishek, Frederick M. Proctor, Thomas Kramer, William Harrison, Satyandra K. Gupta
For the most part, robots perform best in highly structured environments, where objects are in well-known, predictable loca-tions. Another way to describe this is that robots are not considered agile. But, in order for them to be useful to small manu

Introduction: Special Issue on Enabling Robot Autonomy

March 14, 2018
Author(s)
Craig I. Schlenoff, Stephen B. Balakirsky, Henrik I. Christensen
Today's state-of-the-art robots are capable of sub-millimeter movement accuracy when performing highly repeatable tasks. They perform extremely well in highly structured environments, where objects are in well-known, predictable locations. However, robots

Contextualizing Manufacturing Data for Lifecycle Decision Making

March 12, 2018
Author(s)
William Z. Bernstein, Thomas D. Hedberg, Moneer M. Helu, Allison Barnard Feeney
Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) systems manage the flow of data about the product and the processes that are used throughout the product's lifecycle so that the right information is delivered at the right time to the right systems. Manufacturing in the

Standard Data-Based Predictive Modeling for Power Consumption in Turning Machining

February 26, 2018
Author(s)
Seungjun Shin, Jungyub Woo, Sudarsan Rachuri, Prita Meilanitasari
In the metal cutting industry, power consumption is an important metric in the analysis of energy efficiency since it relates to energy consumption of machine tools. Much of the research has developed predictive models that correlate process planning

Multi-Robot Assembly Strategies and Metrics

January 26, 2018
Author(s)
Jeremy A. Marvel, Roger V. Bostelman, Joseph A. Falco
We present a survey of multi-robot assembly applications and methods, and describe trends and general insights into the multi-robot assembly problem for industrial applications. We focus on fixtureless assembly strategies featuring two or more robotic

Strategies for Improving Robot Registration Performance

January 26, 2018
Author(s)
Karl Van Wyk, Jeremy A. Marvel
The ability to calculate rigid-body transformations between arbitrary coordinate systems (i.e., registration) is an invaluable tool in robotics. This effort builds upon previous work by investigating strategies for improving the registration accuracy
