Robotic Assembly Line Commission
Performed safety checks on Kuka and Fanuc robots for automobile assembly lines commission.
Reduced redundancy within the commissioning process internationally by automating the commission pipeline for Kuka robots.
Spot Welding
Assisted the PLC team by creating a custom code in Kuka Workvisual to communicate with the spot welding controller.
(Note: Left the company due to visa expiration.)
Research and Development
Develop a vision-based robot deburring system using the Keyence camera and UR5 robot.
Design and prototype a soft gripper for universal object picking tasks.
Industrial Robot Cell Integration
Integrate Fanuc robots to CNC machines for material handling. The integration includes I/O mapping, sensor integration, and HMI design.
Simulate automation sequence and robot path using Roboguide and RoboDK.
Deliver robust programs for controlling robot trajectory and peripheral signal handling.
Compile thorough documentation for operation, and maintenance.
ARM X Boeing: Simulator for Robot Composite Layup
Created a data collecting system using Ensenso N10 stereo camera, OpenCV, and Point Cloud library to capture composite sheet deformation data.
Built a simulator to simulate composite sheet behavior using OpenGL and a physics library, VegaFEM.
Designed a machine learning infrastructure for training the simulator to automate the layup process using robotic manipulators.
Published a paper regarding the simulator in the Journal of Manufacturing Science and Engineering as the first author.
Yaskawa: CAD Based Robot Programming Interface
Partnered with Yaskawa to develop a user-friendly robot programming interface for users without prior knowledge of robots.
Realized CAD-to-Path programming with ROS to make the robot follow complex paths with the freedom of changing tools and contact angles.
