Abstract(s)
Atualmente, os mercados são bastante exigentes e procuram produtos diversificados, de
elevada qualidade e com prazos de entrega bastante reduzidos. Estes requisitos impõem
novos desafios à indústria mundial, e também portuguesa. Neste âmbito, surge a 4a revolução
industrial onde novas tecnologias de informação e comunicação, assim como de
inteligência artificial, são utilizadas para realizar a digitalização dos sistemas produtivos,
considerando a elevada quantidade de dados disponíveis para realizar monitorização,
previsão e otimização dos processos.
A adoção destes princípios e das tecnologias emergentes associadas encontra-se ainda
numa fase precoce. Os motivos deste atraso são essencialmente, o investimento necessário
à sua implementação, o conhecimento das possíveis vantagens, a elevada dependência
por parte da indústria no uso de processos manuais, exigindo uma elevada especialização
de mão-de-obra e pouca automatização de processos. O projeto I4.0@TMAD foca
esta temática através da promoção da Indústria 4.0 na Região de Trás-os-Montes e Alto
Douro, tendo um papel fundamental em criar abertura no seio das empresas da região
para abraçar esses novos conceitos e tecnologias. No âmbito deste projeto, surge então a
necessidade de desenvolver uma célula demonstrativa que considere conceitos, equipamentos
e abordagens inovadoras. Desta forma, foi construida uma célula robótica colaborativa
que demonstra a potencialidade de colaboração entre o humano e o robô. Este trabalho
contemplou, entre outros aspetos, o dimensionamento dos componentes, nomeadamente
os estruturais, mecânicos e de controlo, a sua implementação, testes e validação da solução
desenvolvida. De forma a demonstrar os conceitos de uma forma simplificada e abrangente,
optou-se por implementar dois cenários de interação colaborativa homem-robô. Para finalizar, foram realizadas varias demonstrações a empresários de vários setores da
região de Trás-os-Montes e Alto Douro (TMAD).
Currently, the markets are quite demanding and are looking for diversified products, high quality and with very short lead times. These requirements pose new challenges to the world industry, as well as portuguese. In this context, the 4th industrial revolution emerges, where new information and communication technologies, as well as artificial intelligence, are used to perform the digitization of production systems, considering the high amount of data available to perform monitoring, forecasting and optimization of processes. The adoption of these principles and associated emerging technologies is still at an early stage. The reasons for this delay are essentially the investment needed to implement it, the knowledge of the possible advantages, the high dependence of the industry on the use of manual processes, requiring a high labor specialization and little automation of processes. The I4.0@TMAD project focuses on this theme through the promotion of Industry 4.0 in the Trás-os-Montes and Alto Douro Region of Portugal, playing a key role in creating openness within the region’s companies to embrace these new concepts and technologies. Within this project, the need arises to develop a demonstration cell that considers innovative concepts, equipment and approaches. In this way, a collaborative robotic cell was built that demonstrates the potential for collaboration between the human and the robot. This work included, among other aspects, the dimensioning of the components, namely structural, mechanical and control, its implementation, testing and validation of the developed solution. In order to demonstrate the concepts in a simplified and comprehensive way, it was decided to implement two scenarios of human-robot collaborative interaction. To conclude, several demonstrations were held for entrepreneurs from various sectors of the TMAD region.
