Collaborative Robots for Textile Quality Inspection
topic
Collaborative robot systems for fabric quality inspection use force-limited robot arms handling fabric samples for presentation to standardised measurement instruments including Martindale testers, tensile testers, and colour measurement spectrophotometers, automating the sample preparation and instrument loading tasks while operators manage the testing programme, with force sensing enabling safe human-robot workspace sharing without safety guarding separation.
Role
Automates the ergonomically repetitive fabric sample handling and instrument loading tasks in textile quality laboratories through collaborative robot assistance that maintains testing throughput during operator absence or high workload periods, with cobots being particularly suitable for the variable and delicate sample handling of textile testing where the flexibility of collaborative operation with human oversight is required rather than fully automated robotic cells.
