This paper focuses on a cost-effective manufacturing of large frame parts for aerospace industries with an industrial robot. The main challenge is the low stiffness of a serial kinematic, resulting in positioning errors ...

The issue of motion planning for closed-loop mechanisms, such as parallel manipulators or robots, is still an open question. This paper proposes a novel approach for motion planning of spatial parallel robots. The framework ...

In this paper, a probability-based balance monitoring concept for humanoid robots is proposed. Two algorithms are presented that allow us to distinguish between exceptional situations and normal operations. The first ...

With the intention to develop a robot based laser cutting process for automotive 3D parts with varying thickness consisting of carbon fibre reinforced plastics (CFRP), strategies of 2D investigations were adapted. The used ...
