Abstract
The aim of the proposed project is the automation of shoe assembly. A special attention will be given to two items: to the connection between the CAD system for designing the shoe and the automated cells in the production of the shoe, and the implementation of advanced sensory system in the automation of the shoe assembly process. The main issue is how to link the shoe design process with the production of the shoe. The main idea is that the tasks in shoe assembly are subjected to the model data used in the shoe design phase. As the assembly depends on the properties of the leather, the type of the shoe and the technology used, this link is in general not trivial. The goal of the automation of the shoe assembly is to minimize the need for human labour or the presence of human operators. In the design of automated working cells the existent production machines and other devices will be used wherever possible. In the case that a certain task can not be automated using an existent device, a new device will be developed. Additionally, we will investigate if all assembly operation are necessary or the shoe assembly steps can be adapted for automation.
