“…Since in FRP-production many different semi-finished products like woven, non-crimped (NCF) or multilayer fabrics are applied, the handling system also has to be able to adjust to different materials easily and without manual interaction. The demand of high quality leads to further provoking constraints, as the structural and material integrity has to be assured by a very gentle, plane and force regulated gripping [4,14]. Figure 2 outlines the challenges for the development of a suitable technology.…”

A high level of cost-intensive manual tasks in the manufacturing process of composite parts impedes a further propagation of those innovative structures in important German industrial branches like the automotive sector or aviation. Especially the handling of semi-finished goods in several key process-chains could not be automated efficiently so far due to a great variety of materials and part contours as well as difficult handling properties of the limp, textile parts. Hence within the presented work a highly-flexible gripper system based on low-vacuum-suction is introduced, which is the result of a methodical investigation in the ideal gripping principle. Special actuators and an intelligent control strategy are combined into a selective gripping technology, which allows an automatic adaption of the pressure based holding force to different contours and materials, by closing certain apertures of a perforated plate. The experimental validation of a realized robotic end-effector shows that the challenging requirements of modern composite production could be fulfilled as the structural integrity of the technical textiles is preserved during the handling processes.

“…), завищені припуски на обробку. Саме при проектуванні магазинних завантажувальних пристроїв для деталей взуття другої групи та при їх поштучному відокремленні і автоматичному завантаженні виникає найбільше ускладнень, пов'язаних з переліченими вище специфічними властивостями, можливе використання завантажувальних пристроїв для листового матеріалу, що застосовуються у поліграфічному, і деревообробному виробництвах [2,3] а також в тих галузях виробництва, де доводиться завантажувати м'які листоподібні матеріали [5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13].…”

“…Intrusive grippers, such as a pinch gripper, have also been designed. The development in the areas discussed above can be illustrated in the example of knitted cotton separation and underwear assembly work (Taylor and Taylor, 1990). Later a pinch gripping model was suggested that offered a relationship between a set of predicted forces and fabric parameters such as frictional characteristic and fabric bending stiffness (Taylor et al, 1996).…”
