Abstract

Nowadays, the trend in manufacturing industries is to make the manufacturing processes sustainable in the countries with higher labour cost. Factory of the Future research project of Aalto University aims to develop a futuristic platform for research and demonstration of net-centric production manufacturing model. It is hoped, that the platform can contribute in transforming Finland’s manufacturing into an agile, high tech network of providers of various manufacturing services of production activities. This thesis investigates, how successfully ABB IRB14000 YuMi robot can fit in this net-centric production concept. Two different approaches have been studied: Integrated Vision approach and From Digital Twins to Product Assembly Approach. The results of both studies show that to be able to fit the Factory of the Future concept, the second approach can be used with minor modifications. Two case studies demonstrate the agility of the method. Also, possible direction of improvement has been proposed. The first study results came to be very useful for possible higher flexibility of product-centric manufacturing.
