Exempel på tooling

• Here, the user was especially concerned with mechanical proper ties and tooling costs; thus, filament winding was generated as the preferred manufacturing option.

• These capabilities are combined into a single, compact device in order to provide stiff, multi-degreeof-freedom actuation as end-of-arm tooling.

• A disadvantage in using this process is the high tooling cost for the individual dies.

• In addition to the material and equipment operating costs, the cost at this stage also includes tooling, burden, and labor costs.

• The load capacity of these robots is principally defined by the weight of the tooling.

• Hence, it is also critical to achieve the economy of scale by identifying repetitive applications of share tooling, knowledge, and other resources.

• For the welded, biaxially stiffened concept, the material and tooling "value-per-pound" factors were not significantly different.

• Z-axis assembly permits simple robots and insertion tooling with gravity serving to assist in the assembly process.

• The specific tooling such as feeders obviously remains quite expensive.

• The par t geometries also influence the equipment and tooling costs.

• More research is needed to understand the specific needs of users and0or groups of users, and to build appropriate tooling for this purpose.

• We anticipate tooling this up as an add-on component for one or more visual development environments to significantly minimize the overhead of this work.

• The ability to extract features resulting from nonstandard, user-defined tooling is outside the scope of other feature extractors.

• Tooling and dies are handled by process engineers internally and by outside prototype shops.

• Things like fixtures, tooling, material, repairs, etc. do not exist.
