摘要： Method and system, for which can be used in the fields of medicine and dentistry as well as for the most varied types of material working in different areas of application and model working, provides that an exact removal of material or a highly precise, reproducible material working can be realized by acquiring, storing and processing data pertaining to position and/or orientation of an effector and their changes relative to the position of at least one reference body. The effector is controlled and/or regulated with regard to its power and/or parameterization based on a predetermined working volume, material volume removed and remaining material volume. A first marking support with markings is arranged on a handpiece with the effector, where the handpiece is connected to a control unit, and a second marking support with markings is attached to the material object or tissue object.

摘要： Methods and apparatus for "Intelligent" control of production processes such as machining, casting, heat treating and welding are disclosed. The key enabler of such control is electro-optical or other suitable sensors, generally non contact, capable of rapidly and accurately acquiring data from parts and tools used to produce them in a production "in-process" environment. Systems are disclosed to control not only the instant operation, but those processes connected therewith, both upstream and downstream. Data bases are generated and knowledge bases are used. Application of the invention can improve quality and productivity, and allow the production of parts which have unusual or individual material characteristics.

摘要： A method for calibrating a second bonding machine based on a calibrated first bonding machine is disclosed. The first bonding machine includes a first ultrasonic transducer. The second bonding machine includes a second ultrasonic transducer and a power supply. The method includes providing a first electrical calibration supply that causes the first ultrasonic transducer to oscillate at a first calibration amplitude when it is damped by a mechanical damping, providing a second electrical calibration supply that causes the second ultrasonic transducer to oscillate at the same calibration amplitude when it is damped by the same mechanical damping. The second bonding machine is adapted to modify a second control signal based on a first electrical parameter of the first electrical calibration supply and on a second electrical parameter of the second electrical calibration supply in order to generate a modified second control signal, provide the modified second control signal to the power supply in order to cause the second power supply to generate a second electrical supply, and provide the second electrical supply to the second ultrasonic transducer.

摘要： A method and system for piece-picking or piece put-away within a logistics facility. The system includes a central server and at least one mobile manipulation robot. The central server is configured to communicate with the robots to send and receive piece-picking data which includes a unique identification for each piece to be picked, a location within the logistics facility of the pieces to be picked, and a route for the robot to take within the logistics facility. The robots can then autonomously navigate and position themselves within the logistics facility by recognition of landmarks by at least one of a plurality of sensors. The sensors also provide signals related to detection, identification, and location of a piece to be picked or put-away, and processors on the robots analyze the sensor information to generate movements of a unique articulated arm and end effector on the robot to pick or put-away the piece.
