Tiivistelmä
Many manufacturing industries are embracing the trend of factory automation and the adoption of robotic technology. As a result, this thesis project aimed to encourage more participation from fellow Automation Engineering students at Häme University of Applied Sciences, later referred to as HAMK, in robotics-related activities and projects.
The early chapters of the thesis serve as introductory materials for beginners in the robotic field. Later parts of the thesis introduce a 3D modelling process and an offline programming (OLP) framework, both of which can be continued as standalone development projects, or they can be integrated into existing automation projects at HAMK.
Although the two products of this thesis project are far from being ready to be used in the industry, they both have complete fundamental functions that can be utilised immediately. Appealing topics from the author’s perspective for future developments include robot calibrations and improvements on the OLP framework and its implementations.
