J. Scholliers et H. Vanbrussel, DESIGN AND OFF-LINE PROGRAMMING OF A ROBOTIC TAPE WINDING CELL, Robotics and computer-integrated manufacturing, 12(1), 1996, pp. 93-98
Tape winding is a variation on filament winding, in which a single tap
e is used instead of a bundle of independently tensioned rovings. At K
.U. Leuven, a robotic tape winding cell has been developed. Starting f
rom data of the fiber paths, a collision-free off-line robot program i
s generated. To avoid collisions a heuristic method is used. The metho
d has been validated by winding of a T-piece.
