Abstract
Nowadays, the serial production of Carbon Fiber-Reinforced Polymers remains a challenge for the industry. Their production and application have been limited by the intensive manual work required to produce them and the resulting elevated manufacturing costs. Moreover, the production handling tasks are fulfilled to a limited extent by the gripping systems currently available in the market. The delicate process and specific material requirements of these polymers compromise the feasibility and use of automated gripper systems. An innovative solution for the automated material handling of carbon fiber textiles developed by the wbk Institute for Production Science in cooperation with J. Schmalz GmbH will be presented in this paper. The main focus of this study deals with measuring principles to increase energy efficiency, process reliability and adaptability of a gripping system using low pressure grippers. This study presents suitable solutions for the implementation of low pressure grippers in a production environment.
