The project „ECHTZEIT – Development of a high-precision robot system for automated optical inspections in AFP manufacturing systems“ has started at the Chair of Carbon Composites. Together with the project partner "Walter Seikowsky GmbH" an optical quality assurance system will be integrated into a high-precision robot system to enable an automated inspection of production parts. The goal is to reduce downtime due to manual quality control by improving the precision of localization and the characterization of defects through algorithmic automation.
The new project is funded by the Central Innovation Program for medium-sized enterprises (ZIM) of the Federal Ministry of Economical Affairs and Energy.
