Industrierobotergeführte Montage flächiger nicht formstabiler Fügepartner

With the growing use of new materials such as technical textiles, handling and joining of non-rigid sheet components become increasingly important. In order to automate these processes, one has to have an exact knowledge of the relevant parameters. In this article the bonding of elastomer-coated fabrics is used to determine central parameters and develop joining kinematics, the gripper principle, and the size of the gripping surfaces of the component.
