Περίληψη: | Today’s European industry faces the challenge of achieving flexibility and efficiency in order to improve its competitive position in the world market. There are numerous industrial applications, where the assembly process is mainly performed by human operators. The introduction of robots to support assembly operators reduces the need for physical strength and repetitive tasks. By allowing a safe human robot collaboration (HRC) in a fenceless and safe environment, the synergy effect of the robot’s precision, repeatability and strength with the human’s intelligence and flexibility will be much greater, especially in the case of small scale production, where re-configurability and adaptability are of great importance.
