Strategies and Devices for a Modular Desktop Factory

Abstract: The first part of the paper describes different concepts for micro production. The potential of miniaturised size adapted robots is pointed out based on their flexibiUty. Flexibility thereby is discussed in a detailed way that leads to two different ways of robot integration. The second part of the paper deals with the desktop factory concept. Beginning with a short state of the art for desktop factories, the preconditions for future concepts are discussed. Finally, with regard to a module for a desktop factor… Show more

“…No micro production systems are existing that include the aspects of a Lean-Production-System as described above. There are only attempts to organize technological interfaces or logistical aspects that allow a combination of different processes [2,9,4]. However, these do not allow a continuous assessment of the process capability of the production process nor do they offer the chance to increase the production performance over the whole production process.…”
