Collaborative assembly system

The design of assembly systems with human-robot collaboration (HRC) is a complex task due to the variety of goal criteria that have to be considered. A digital tool for designing and securing HRC-applications as well as adequate training and qualification concepts for companies are yet missing and are still major obstacles to the use of HRC. This paper proposes a new methodology for the task-based digital design of collaborative assembly systems. In the future, this will ensure that companies are getting empowered for a straightforward development and commissioning of HRC-systems
