Prof. Dr. Thomas Klauer
Mainz University of Applied SciencesThe aim of the project is to develop an easy-to-operate, compact and universally applicable robot system for the efficient realization of complex, large-format components as individual pieces or in very small series.
Motivation
The system, which consists of hardware and software, is intended to be the first complete solution for process planning, control of the robots and associated peripherals, including setup and positioning of the workpieces with minimal programming effort and without process intervention until completion. The new robot system should also be manageable for manufacturing companies with little experience of robots, such as joineries, and should be operable without intensive training. Efficient use of installation space is to be used to develop a compact system that, despite large starting materials, can implement workpiece production by means of milling with small machining systems and within short machining distances. The new Codiro (Compact digital robot-milling) hardware and software system is intended to overcome the high entry barriers for the use of robot systems in the area of single-item and small series production.
