Abstract

This paper reviews and analyzes the recent progress in human-robot collaborative (HRC) technologies that enhance assembly and welding processes. It focuses on how the HRC approach helps improve assembly and welding productivity and quality, while enabling complex process operations that cannot be accomplished by humans or robots/machines alone. It also discusses the basic elements in HRC approaches, including (1) human sensors, (2) signal processing for extraction of human intent from sensors, (3) presentation of information to the human for their reaction, obtained from environmental sensors that monitor the environment, machines, and processes, and (4) interface control, which manages how information is presented to the human, what reactions are expected from the human, and what needs to be presented next. Finally, it summarizes the state-of-the-art in the major elements and application accomplishments, identifies challenges for greater benefits, and proposes directions to address these challenges.

人机协作装配与焊接：技术现状回顾与分析

本文回顾并分析了可提高装配和焊接工艺的人机协作（HRC）技术的最新进展。本文重点讨论了人机协作方法如何帮助提高装配和焊接的生产率和质量，同时实现人类或机器人/机器无法单独完成的复杂工艺操作。报告还讨论了HRC方法的基本要素，包括：(1) 人类传感器；(2) 从传感器中提取人类意图的信号处理；(3) 从监控环境、机器和流程的环境传感器中获取信息，并将信息呈现给人类，以便其做出反应；(4) 界面控制，即管理如何将信息呈现给人类、期望人类做出哪些反应以及下一步需要呈现哪些信息。最后，报告总结了各主要元素的最新进展和应用成果，指出了要取得更大效益所面临的挑战，并提出了应对这些挑战的方向。

期刊介绍： The aim of the Journal of Manufacturing Processes (JMP) is to exchange current and future directions of manufacturing processes research, development and implementation, and to publish archival scholarly literature with a view to advancing state-of-the-art manufacturing processes and encouraging innovation for developing new and efficient processes. The journal will also publish from other research communities for rapid communication of innovative new concepts. Special-topic issues on emerging technologies and invited papers will also be published.
