AMRC在幫助企業克服制造問題方面享譽,他們可以協助組織的一個領域是自動化研究。
使用機器人自動化生產需要一個可以運行機器人的堅實數據??芍匦屡渲玫牡匕咫[藏了電纜,使工廠組件(如機器人,工具和工件夾持)能夠根據生產變化的要求快速準確地重新定位。這對中小型企業(SME)有利,因為它們通常會進行小批量生產并定期更改生產方法,需要定期重組工廠。
BCP為??AMRC提供鋁蜂窩復合材料中心,邊角和角落地板,以構成一系列高承載但輕質的溝槽蓋。壓碎強度為235 psi時,可以手動移除面板,以便快速接入電纜并重新配置工作單元。

目前,這種地板和機器人配置通過在適應性固定裝置(裝配夾具)上拾取和連接C部分來展示用于螺柱墻壁的框架的組裝。該平臺是建筑行業的先鋒,因為在不到半天的時間內,地板和機器人可以重新布置以執行不同的應用,例如鋼模具的自動磨削。它顯示了許多不同的應用程序以及能夠快速更改應用程序,任務和pod布局的獨特功能。
AMRC集成制造集團項目工程師George Sleath MEng說:
“我們近與BCP合作開發了一種用于安裝各種機器人和機械的可重構地板結構。地板設計允許快速轉向和設置用于幫助中小企業探索潛在自動化應用的研究單元。BCP提供的服務非常好,我強烈推薦他們。他們非常了解在項目的初步設計階段提供幫助和專業知識,幫助我們以具有成本效益的價格設計完美的組件。終的復合板質量非常高,并按時交付到緊迫的后期限。“

Working in conjunction with the University of Sheffield's Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre (AMRC) with Boeing, BCP (Bespoke Composite Panels) have manufactured a reconfigurable floor structure used to mount various robots and machinery.

AMRC has a global reputation for helping companies overcome manufacturing problems and one of the areas they can assist organisations is with research into automation.
Automating production using robots requires a solid datum from which the robots can operate. A reconfigurable floor conceals cables and enables factory components, such as robots, tooling and work holding, to be quickly and accurately relocated as changing production dictates. This benefits small and medium enterprises (SMEs) as they will typically run small batch productions and change their production methods regularly, requiring reorganising their factory regularly.
BCP provided the AMRC with aluminium honeycomb composite centre, edge and corner floor panels to make up a series of high load bearing but lightweight trench covers. With a crush strength of 235 psi, the panels can manually be removed for quick cable access and reconfiguring of the work cell.

Currently this floor and robot configuration demonstrates the assembly of frames for stud walling by picking and joining C sections on an adaptable fixture (assembly jig). This platform is pioneering for the construction industry as in less than half a day the floor and robots can be rearranged to perform a different application, such as autonomous grinding of steel tooling. It shows lots of different applications and the unique function of being able to quickly change applications, tasks and pod layout.
George Sleath MEng, Project Engineer, The AMRC’s Integrated Manufacturing Group, said:
“We recently worked with BCP on a reconfigurable floor structure used to mount various robots and machinery. The floor design allows for fast turn around and setup of a research cell used to help SMEs explore potential automation applications. The service provided by BCP was excellent and I would highly recommend them. They were very knowledgeable in providing help and expertise at the preliminary design stage of the project, helping us to design the perfect components at a cost-effective price. The final composite panels were of very high quality and were delivered on time to a tight deadline.”
