INCREASED FLEXIBILITY IN AUTOMATED ASSEMBLYAND DISASSEMBLY BY THE USE OF SENSOR-BASEDPNEUMATIC GRIPPERS

摘要

In the paper, a monitoring system for the supervision of servopneumatic grippers is introduced. Thebasic strategies for the detection of manipulation errors is explained and error elimination proceduresare suggested. The paper describes the application of the developed technology in a pilot plant for theassembly of clutch release stops for commercial vehicles and gives an outlook on possible fields ofapplications.
