However, it faces several challenges related to increasing energy consumption and climate change. The high energy demands of connected devices and robotic manipulators increase the carbon footprint. To resolve this issue, most enterprises are now transitioning to use Renewable Energy Sources (RES), and optimizing their power and energy usage, while holding the process efficient. To fully achieve this transition, a detailed power modeling of the robotic manufacturing system is crucial and, therefore, it is important to investigate this power modeling of the robotic manipulators’ consumption in a Smart Sustainable Manufacturing (SSM) to achieve the best power modeling results and better integrability analytics in optimal power planning of the robotic systems power supply. To this end, this paper presents a deep Generative Artificial Intelligence (GAI)-based modeling of robotic manipulators’ power supply interaction with the power grid, and RES. In the proposed system, which is powered by solar energy and the power grid, a SSM equipped with ten 6-Degrees of Freedom (DoF) robotic manipulators is considered in the presence of Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESSs). Subsequently, a Wasserstein Generative Adversarial Network with Gradient Penalty (WGAN-GP) is employed to generate synthetic data for the system alongside the real data, thereby expanding the analytical horizons across varying operational characteristics of the system. Following this, a Residual Networks (ResNet) is developed to comprehensively analyze and predictively model the power consumption of the manipulators and their interactions with the power supply resources.

With this approach, a new polishing toolpath model is proposed by combining an adaptive trochoid and an improved Hilbert curve, which has more adjustable parameters, better multi-directionality, higher randomness, and smoothness.

The simultaneous consideration of all these factors poses a significant challenge, and existing methods do not adequately address the global optimality and the convergence of the solution process. This paper proposes a novel posture optimization model to improve the comprehensive performance of robotic postures by integrating enhancements in both kinematic and stiffness performance under fundamental geometric constraints. An efficient and stable algorithm, designated as Kinematics-Constrained Adaptive Dynamic Programming (KC-ADP), is developed to solve the optimization problem. First, the combined constraints are modeled based on the robotic polishing system. Next, feasible posture solutions corresponding to different redundant parameters are collected according to machining requirements and transformed into a directed graph using the proposed Multi-Constraints Search Space Generation (MCSSG) algorithm. The optimal posture sequence is then obtained through adaptive dynamic programming, ensuring the availability of feasible postures at each step and resolving the conflict between multi-order kinematic constraints and the objective function.

Multi-Degree-of-Freedom (Multi-DOF) compliance provides high adaptability for addressing this assembly challenge. However, problems such as excessive size, insufficient dynamics, and complex jamming mechanisms have emerged. To solve these problems, we propose a jamming-free strategy. This strategy uses a lightweight, compact multi-DOF end-effector with a 3-Prismatic-Revolute-Spherical (3-PRS) parallel configuration, along with an active force control algorithm. The force control result of an absolute mean error of 1 N is observed for a setpoint value of 100 N along the z-axis. Meanwhile, the moments about the x- and y-axis are controlled within an absolute mean error of 0.04 N.mm. With the accurate compliance provided by the proposed force-controlled end-effector, the peg-in-hole operation is considered as a reciprocal transition between a transient one-point contact and a steady two-point jamming. Based on admittance control, a control strategy is designed to transform the two-point jamming into one-point contact, thereby preventing jamming during the precision peg-in-hole operation with significant uncertainties, eliminating the need for repeated positional adjustments during insertion. Experimental results show that the peg can be inserted into different holes with various pose errors and unknown dimensional tolerances. These results validate the rationality of the proposed jamming-free strategy for precision peg-in-hole assembly. The jamming-free peg-in-hole assembly employing a force-controlled parallel end-effector exhibits superior robustness and operational stability when it is applied into a satellite assembling task.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":21452,"journal":{"name":"Robotics and Computer-integrated Manufacturing","volume":"97 ","pages":"Article 103083"},"PeriodicalIF":9.1,"publicationDate":"2025-06-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144471502","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This system integrates a disturbance observer (DOB) and a reaction force observer (RFOB) while employing a numerical optimization-based extremum-seeking algorithm. Conventional force/torque sensors, when employed in serially connected manipulator systems, often trigger unstable responses due to the presence of non-collocated modes. Furthermore, conventional reaction force observers may fail to accurately estimate the contact force between the robot and its environment when external disturbance terms are not perfectly modeled a priori. In response to these challenges, recent research has reintegrated force/torque sensors into the control architecture, employing filter-based sensor fusion techniques to mitigate disturbance effects. However, these approaches fail to address the inherent stability challenges caused by the mounting and serial connection of force/torque sensors within the robot manipulator system, which in turn increases the design complexity of reaction-force-observer-based force control systems.
