Intelligent machinery components, actuators and end-effectors

General desciption of Intelligent machinery components, actuators and end-effectors:

Intelligent components enable the deployment of safe, energy-efficient, accurate and flexible or reconfigurable products and production systems. This includes the introduction of smart actuators and the use of advanced end-effectors composed of passive and active materials. Energy technologies are gaining importance, such as (super)capacitors, pneumatic storage devices, batteries and energy harvesting technologies.

Comment:

Closed-loop control multieffector replication equipment will be developed to enable thin foil structured polymer injection via injection-compression molding and hot embossing. This advanced mechatronic design is intended to improve the replicated part quality, respond to unexpected material behaviour, and considerably reduce cycle times with respect to conventional single effector and open-loop controlled replication machines, currently used in industry.
