  @article{noauthororeditor, abstract = {Additive manufacturing is becoming increasingly important for industrial applications. Especially laser powder bed fusion processes play a decisive role. However, the technology often lacks in reliability and part quality due to complex process interactions and disturbing influences. To counteract these limitations, a flexible and high-dynamic control of relevant process parameters, taking into account the transient process conditions, is indispensable. Currently, the most process parameters are often kept constant, since the used control systems do not offer real-time capable interfaces for intervention. To enable the adjustment of parameters during the process, an open control architecture for galvanometer scanners and laser sources was developed. The architecture is based on an industrial control system in combination with a field-programmable gate array (FPGA) communicating via a real-time fieldbus. The novel control architecture is used to integrate a model-based feedforward control, adjusting the laser power, scan speed and scan strategy based on the current powder bed temperature calculated by a two-dimensional thermal model during run time. An integrated learning algorithm autonomously tunes the process parameters during the manufacturing process and determines the optimal combination of laser power, scan speed and powder bed temperature to achieve a homogeneous melt pool. On average, the standard deviation of the powder bed temperature along the scan path was reduced by 48% for the simulated test cases.}, author = {Reiff, Colin and Bubeck, Wolfgang and Krawczyk, Daniel and Steeb, Maximilian and Lechler, Armin and Verl, Alexander}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.1016/j.procir.2021.01.064}, journal = {Procedia CIRP}, note = {8th CIRP Global Web Conference}, pages = {127-132}, title = {Learning Feedforward Control for Laser Powder Bed Fusion}, url = {https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2212827121000883}, volume = 96, year = 2021 }

Due to the underlying body of involved theories including material science, (bio-)mechanics, control, sensing as well as electrical and mechanical engineering, it is even difficult to provide a comprehensive problem formulation. In this paper, the problem of identifying challenges within the different research areas and between their respective interfaces is addressed with a practical case study. Based on a generalized sandbox scenario of a remotely controlled drawing robot, challenges with regard to the interdisciplinary research fields of robot control, architecture, sensor development, material modelling and interaction between rigid actuators acting on soft materials are investigated and analyzed. The major contribution of this paper is the explicit identification of unresolved research problems in the field and a quantification of the correlations between the involved disciplines.

With this method a part of arbitrary shape can be automatically sliced and equipped with a uniform virtual grid that is suitable for manufacturing. The optimal density distribution is then mapped onto the individual slices and locally approximated through the introduction of variably shaped cavities. By using 3D modeling techniques all LLM sheets are modeled parametrically and assembled automatically. To verify the functionality of the presented method, it is applied to two practical parts and compared with a conventional topology optimization method.}, author = {Helfesrieder, Nico and Lechler, Armin and Verl, Alexander}, doi = {10.1016/j.procir.2020.04.048}, issn = {22128271}, journal = {Procedia CIRP}, pages = {38--43}, title = {Method for generating manufacturable, topology-optimized parts for Laminated Layer Manufacturing}, url = {http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2212827120306144}, volume = 93, year = 2020 }

Therefore, a method for adapting the switching frequency of the drive inverter during runtime when high accuracy is not required is presented in this paper.

We compare the proposed robot structure with other cable robots and present technical details of the evaluation. Technical details on the mechanical and controller design are given.

Dazu wurden Ansätze der Null-Fehler-Fertigung in einem industriellen Anwendungsfall realisiert und in Form eines cyber-physischen Systems in die Prozesskette integriert. Um Fehler, bedingt durch Verformungen des Ausgangmaterials zu kompensieren, werden sowohl die Soll-Geometrie als auch die tatsächliche Geometrie des Bauteils berücksichtigt. Für ei-nen Vergleich beider Geometrien wurden verschiedene Modellierungsmethoden vorgestellt und diskutiert. Darauf aufbauend wurden Algorithmen entwickelt, welche die Position der Referenzbohrung zur Festlegung der Rotationsachse hinsichtlich verschiedener Kriterien optimieren. Darüber hinaus werden für den Fall, dass eine Welle voraussichtlich nicht gefertigt werden kann, weitere Soll-Geometrien über-prüft und so alternative Vorschläge zur Fertigung gemacht. Das System berechnet eine Vielzahl von Parametern, wie Unwucht und minimaler Abstand der Soll-Geometrie zur Ist-Geometrie und kann dadurch zur weiteren Verbesserung der gesamten Prozesskette verwendet werden.

Based on the gathered information, data analyzing methods can be used to identify correlations and thus, optimize complex multi-stage production systems with the goal of zero-defect manufacturing. For this purpose, multiple statistical methods have to be applied, which is often a time-consuming task and currently requires trained and experienced specialists. Furthermore, the investigated data must be kept up to date for the early recognition of changes possibly leading to cost-intensive scrap and production downtimes. To address these issues, a web-based platform with an intuitive user interface was developed. The platform can access and process various data sources using modular methods. In addition, as part of continuous monitoring, the results of these analyzing steps can be dynamically calculated. The aim of the platform is to make complex analysis processes accessible to machine operators and thus to combine domain expertise and statistical knowledge.

In small systems, an information model can be created manually with reasonable effort. In systems with numerous data structures, however, the effort for manual creation is too demanding. In order to continue using the existing data structures in the code without having to handle OPC UA-specific data structures, a transformation between the existing data structures and the OPC UA information model is necessary. This article presents a possibility of generating an OPC UA information model by a description of the existing data structures, e.g. generated based on ROS messages. The description of data structures is evaluated at runtime and linked with the existing data structures. The different representations for the different access types (read, request/response) in the OPC UA information model are discussed. In addition, an OPC UA client can read the information model from the descriptions of the data structures and write the read data back to the original data structure. In this way, both the provision of the data via OPC UA and the reception are possible. The adaptation effort of the existing software is minimal, since the existing structures are automatically populated and can still be used as usual.}, author = {von Arnim, Christian and Friedl, Sebastian and Lechler, Armin and Verl, Alexander}, booktitle = {2019 IEEE 17th International Conference on Industrial Informatics (INDIN)}, doi = {10.1109/INDIN41052.2019.8972189}, issn = {1935-4576}, month = {July}, pages = {959-964}, title = {Automated OPC UA address space generation from existing data structures}, url = {https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/8972189/}, volume = 1, year = 2019 }

The spectrum of producible shapes and the resolution of detail, however, are determined and constrained by the layer-based nature of the fabrication process. These aspects significantly limit FFF-based approaches for the prefabrication and in situ fabrication of free-form shells at the architectural scale. Snails exhibit a shell building process that suggests ways to overcome these limits. They produce a soft, pliable proteinaceous film—the periostracum—which later hardens and serves, among other functions, as a form-giving surface for an inner calcium carbonate layer. Snail shell formation behavior is interpreted from a technical point of view to extract potentially useful aspects for a biomimetic transfer.

To manipulate them in a desired way, real-time capable simulations for control that are able to run in cycle-time are required as well as highly accurate and detailed simulations for path planning. We introduce a common simulation environment that is wrapped in a container with the advantages of including all dependencies and being easy to set up and orchestrate. Automated code generation is used to set up a standardized communication and virtualization in a Docker container such that only the simulation itself has to be provided by a user. The advantage of containerization, compared to the simulation running natively, is finally demonstrated with a sample robot simulation under heavy CPU load.}, author = {Hinze, Christoph and Tasci, Timur and Lechler, Armin and Verl, Alexander}, booktitle = {2018 25th International Conference on Mechatronics and Machine Vision in Practice (M2VIP)}, doi = {10.1109/M2VIP.2018.8600827}, month = nov, pages = {1-6}, title = {Towards Real-Time Capable Simulations with a Containerized Simulation Environment}, url = {https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/8600827/}, year = 2018 }

  @inproceedings{8600856, abstract = {Today, numerical controls (CNC) are the standard for the control of machine tools and industrial robots in production and enable highly flexible and efficient production, especially for frequently changing production tasks. A numerical control has discrete inputs and outputs. Within the NC channel, however, it is necessary to analytically describe curves for the calculation of the position setpoints and the jerk limitation. The resulting change between discrete and continuous description forms and the considerable restrictions in the parallelisation of the interpolation of continuous curves within the NC channel lead to a performance overhead that limits the performance of the NC channel with regard to the calculation of new position setpoints. This can lead to a drop in production speed and thus to longer production times. To solve this problem, we propose a new approach in this paper. This is based on the use of deep generative models and allows the direct generation of interpolated toolpaths without calculation of continuous curves and subsequent discretization. The generative models are being trained to create curves of certain types such as linear and parabolic curves or splines directly as discrete point sequences. This approach is very well feasible with regard to its parallelization and reduces the computing effort within the NC channel. First results with straight lines and parabolic curves show the feasibility of this new approach for the generation of CNC toolpaths.}, author = {Kaiser, Benjamin and Csiszar, Akos and Verl, Alexander}, booktitle = {2018 25th International Conference on Mechatronics and Machine Vision in Practice (M2VIP)}, doi = {10.1109/M2VIP.2018.8600856}, month = nov, pages = {1-6}, title = {Generative models for direct generation of CNC toolpaths}, url = {https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/8600856/}, year = 2018 }

However, since not all influencing factors and possible defects, especially in highly complex process chains, can be detected by physical sensors, the machine operator’s experience and his ability to identify non-conformances play a decisive role for achieving zero-defect manufacturing of high-quality parts. In order to make use of these aspects for defect and process analyses as well as for downstream compensation, rework measures and data-driven optimization strategies, a user interface connected to a central database is required. The user interface aims to enable standardized recording of identified defects and performed rework. For this purpose, a game engine is used to allow a user-friendly operation using touch gestures and a three-dimensional visualization of the workpiece.

Nevertheless, they still face significant drawbacks in the required effort for the preparation of complex robot tasks which causes these systems to be rarely present so far in small and medium-sized enterprises (SME) that focus mainly on small volume, high variant manufacturing. In this paper, we propose a camera-based path planning framework that allows the fast preparation and execution of robot tasks in dynamic environments which leads to less planning overhead, fast program generation and reduced cost and hence overcomes the major impediments for the usage of industrial robots for automation in SMEs with focus on low volume and high variant manufacturing. The framework resolves existing problems in different steps. The exact position and orientation of the workpiece are determined from a 3D environment model scanned by an optical sensor. The so retrieved information is used to plan a collision-free path that meets the boundary conditions of the specific robot task. Experiments show the potential and effectiveness of the the framework presented here by evaluating a case study.}, author = {Weβeler, Peter and Kaiser, Benjamin and t.

  @article{karim2017kompensation, abstract = {Neben Kugelgewindetrieben (KGT) und Lineardirektantrieben (LDA) werden auch Zahnstange-Ritzel-Antriebe (ZRA) zur Erzeugung von Vorschubbewegungen in Werkzeugmaschinen eingesetzt. Dabei wird die rotatorische Bewegung des elektrischen Antriebsmotors über ein Getriebe und eine Ritzel-Zahnstange-Kombination in eine lineare Vorschubbewegung umgesetzt. Dieser Mechanismus weist, vor allem wenn es sich um Werkzeugmaschinen mit großen Abmessungen handelt, grundlegende Vorteile auf. Im Gegensatz zu KGTs, bei denen die resultierende Steifigkeit von dem der aktuellen Position des Tischs sowie vom Verhältnis der Verfahrlänge zum Spindeldurchmesser bestimmt wird, ist die Vorschubsteifigkeit des ZRA weitgehend konstant. Ein weiterer Vorteil liegt in der möglichen Kosteneinsparung bei langen Verfahrwegen hinsichtlich der notwendigen Sensorik zur Bestimmung der Tischposition. Diese wird indirekt über den Drehwinkel des Antriebsmotors bestimmt, was teure und lange Messsysteme zur direkten Bestimmung der Tischposition überflüssig machen. Aber gerade der mechanische Aufbau von Ritzel und Zahnstange im Verbund mit einer indirekten Positionsermittlung führen zu Umkehrspiel und somit zu einer geringeren Positioniergenauigkeit sowie geringer Systemstabilität.}, author = {Karim, Ali and Lechler, Armin and Verl, Alexander}, editor = {GmbH, Vereinigte Fachverlage}, journal = {Antriebstechnik}, language = {deutsch}, month = {April}, number = 4, pages = {116 - 117}, title = {Kompensation des Umkehrspiels bei Zahnstange-Ritzel-Antrieben}, url = {http://digital.antriebstechnik.de/antriebstechnik-4-2017/58127174/116}, year = 2017 }

  @inproceedings{8211452, abstract = {Handling of deformable objects with industrial robots holds many unresolved challenges. Especially, describing and predicting the deformed state is computationally expensive and therefore difficult under the requirements of manufacturing environments. A concept for a simulation-based approach towards bin picking of deformable objects, is presented in this paper. The emphasis of the approach lies on the subtask of localisation and pose estimation, but regards the context of gripping and manipulation as well. A multi-body modelling approach is considered to model the deformation of soft objects. The basic idea is to provide a reduced order model accounting for the requirements of short computation times. At last, the implementation of the proposed bin picking system is discussed and further research activities with the presented system are outlined.}, author = {Wnuk, Markus and Pott, Andreas and Xu, Weilang and Lechler, Armin and Verl, Alexander}, booktitle = {24th International Conference on Mechatronics and Machine Vision in Practice (M2VIP)}, doi = {10.1109/M2VIP.2017.8211452}, eventtitle = {International Conference on Mechatronics and Machine Vision in Practice (M2VIP)}, isbn = {978-1-5090-6546-2}, issn = {null}, month = nov, pages = {1-6}, title = {Concept for a simulation-based approach towards automated handling of deformable objects - A bin picking scenario.}, type = {Publication}, url = {https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/8211452/}, venue = {Auckland, New Zealand}, year = 2017 }
