Application of Collaborative Robot in Automotive Industry

Abstract

The thesis investigates how the collaborative robot ("UR5e cobot" with "OnRobot RG gripper") can be used in the parts sorting process, an important part of the preparation for assembling operations. This process has been described as demanding lots of physical work within tight time limits. The goal was to automate this sorting process with cobots so that it increases output and reduces the physical efforts of human workers.
