In-Process Workpiece Geometry Estimation for Robotic Arc Welding based on Supervised Learning for Multi-Sensor Inputs
Alexander Schmidt Christian Kotschote Oliver Riedel Alexander Schmidt Christian Kotschote Oliver Riedel
Due to manufacturing tolerances, the geometry parameters of workpieces are not constant in industrial welding applications. Today, this problem is addressed by either accepting fluctuating part quality or by measuring the geometry and adjusting the configuration of the robot and process controller for each individual part. However, measuring the geometry requires additional manufacturing time or r...
