Abstract [en]
Automating an industrial process is a complicated task since it is necessary to obtain very few defects. In order to do this, it is necessary to be able to analyse each of the products involved in order to know how to deal with them correctly. Borealis, a provider of innovative solutions in the fields of polyolefins, base chemicals and fertilizers, aims to automate a process in which a substance, Perkadox, harmful to health is used. To accomplish this, three solutions will be proposed in this thesis.
The process consists of picking up and moving a box with an industrial robot, then opening the box for picking up and leaving in the conveyor Perkadox plastic bags using the same robot. Finally, these bags have to be opened to get their contents.
ABB's RobotStudio software is used for doing the simulation and programming offline.
