Due to the unique characteristics of robots, it is important to recognize all the costs and benefits of a robotic installation in evaluating the feasibility of including this new piece of equipment in the production process. What makes analyzing the proposed robotic acquisition different from the usual capital equipment purchase is dealing with the many secondary and tertiary benefits and costs afforded by robotic systems.The chief difficulty is estimating the costs and benefits due to the flexibility of the robot installation.There are three important and essential steps in the determination of the value of a robotics installation. Initially it is necessary to make an informed estimate of the total investment required to obtain and install the equipment. Secondly, the effect of the incremental investment on the operation of the firm both in terms of expenses and profitability must be carefully measured. And finally, the third step is an analysis of the value of the equipment in terms of the return provided in relation to the required investment.</div>","PeriodicalId":37568,"journal":{"name":"Robotics","volume":"3 2","pages":"Pages 213-219"},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"1987-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/0167-8493(87)90010-6","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86788481","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This should help us to understand their interrelations and limitations when their integration in a system is attempted. The notion of robot station, rather than a mere manipulator, will be kept in view.The conceptual structure presented has two phases: <ul><li>&#x02022;- off-line: automatic plan generation (implicit programming) and plan testing (in simulated execution)</li><li>&#x02022;- on-line: execution supervision with sensorial feedback and local planning capability.</li></ul>The usual limitations of an off-line approach are analyzed and a more active role of simulation of the whole station is suggested, specially in what concerns a comprehensive sensorial simulation, allowing moving to this phase most verifications, previously mandatory on the on-line phase. This should allow a more realistic plan generation and, eventually, interactive planning (with better debugging tools).In the on-line stage, emphasis is placed on the relationship between execution supervision and sensorial feedback. One suggestion of automatic plan repair, valid for any of the phases is also presented.</div>","PeriodicalId":37568,"journal":{"name":"Robotics","volume":"3 2","pages":"Pages 195-204"},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"1987-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/0167-8493(87)90008-8","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88516358","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
