  • Rod consolidation is a method of increasing spent nuclear fuel storage capacity by disassembling fuel assemblies thus storing the fuel rods in a tighter array. It involves some basic operations which closely resemble to the material handling of a manufacturing process. But all the operations must be controlled remotely in shielded environment from outside due to the highly radioactive nature of the workpiece. In this study the status of the rod consolidation technology in other countries has been surveyed and a feasibility study for the conceptual design of this process have been made.

  • 최근 산업화로 인하여 물류 자동화에 많은 관심이 집중되고 있다. 지금까지는 컨베이어 벨트가 물류 자동화에 있어서 가장 많이 사용되었지만 이 시스템은 공간을 많이 차지하고, 비용이 많이 든다는 단점을 가지고 있다. 본 논문은 퍼지를 이용한 새로운 자율 주행 제어 알고리즘을 소개한다. 이 이동로봇은 바닥 위에 설치된 선을 따라가도록 되어있다. 그리고 3개의 근접센서로부터 정보가 입력된다. 이러한 획득된 정보를 자율 주행을 위하여 퍼지로 제어하였다. 그러므로 현존하는 시스템과는 달리, 열악한 환경 조건하에서도 높은 신뢰성을 보증하고, 라인의 유지 보수를 낮은 비용으로 쉽게 설치할 수 있다. 이 자율이동로봇의 이용은 공장이나 병원 내의 물류자동화를 실현시키고, 사무실 내에서 서류배달 등의 여러분야에 응용되어 질 수 있다.

  • Today, technologies and automation have been accelerated up in the industrial workplace. Nevertheless, many systems still require humans to handle materials manually. The Low Back Pain (LBP) is one of modern human being's most common and complex ailments. Many risk factors with the onset of LBP have been identified, however, lifting out of Manual Material Handling(MMH) was the most important factor to the LBP. The Virtual Reality(VR) is used in a variety of ways and often in a confusion and misleading manner. In order to solve the prevention of the LBP, a lifting box was translated in the Virtual Environment(VE). As simulating under the VE, optimal lifting works could be constructed. The purpose of this study is to reduce the chronical low back pain for the manual material handlers.

  • To keep pace with Industry 4.0, it is imperative for companies to redesign their working environments by adopting robotic automation systems. Automation lines are facilitating the latest cutting-edge technologies, such as 3D vision and industrial robots, to outdo competitors by reducing costs. Considering the nature of the manufacturing industry, a time-saving workflow and smooth linkwork between processes is vital. At Dellics, without any additional new installation in the automation lines, only a few improvements to the working process could raise productivity. Three requirements are the development of gripping technology by utilizing a 3D vision system for the recognition of the material shape and location, research on lighting projectors to target long distances and high illumination, and testing of algorithms/software to improve measurement accuracy and identify products. With some of the functional requisites mentioned above, improved robotic automation systems should provide an improved working environment to maximize overall production efficiency. In this article, the ways in which such a system can become the groundwork for establishing an unmanned working infrastructure are discussed.

  • Unmanned autonomous forklifts have a great potential to enhance the productivity of material handling in various applications because these forklifts can pick up and deliver loads without an operator and any fixed guide. Especially, automation of pallet loading and unloading technique is useful for enhancing performance of logistics and reducing cost for automation system. There are, however, many technical difficulties in developing such forklifts including localization, map building, sensor fusion, control, and so on. This is because the system requires numerous sensors, actuators, and controllers that need to be connected with each other, and the number of connections grows very rapidly as the number of devices grows. This paper presents a vision sensorbased autonomous loading and unloading for network-based unmanned forklift where system components are connected to a shared CAN network. Functions such as image processing and control algorithm are divided into small tasks that are distributed over a number of microcontrollers with a limited computing capacity. And the experimental results show that proposed architecture can be an appropriate choice for autonomous loading in the unmanned forklift.

  • Due to the fast growing rate of the global container trade, every major port is under the pressure of meeting the projected capacity demand. As a result, alternative solutions have been sought for improving capacity and meeting the growing demand for container storage area and terminal capacity. Moreover, material handling process re-engineering is now a critical issue for logistics and supply chain managers of airline, shipping lines, terminal and warehousing enterprises around the world. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to develop the 3D simulator for executing performance valuation of port transportation systems. The developed 3D simulator system is to measure the effectiveness of the proposed total system and compare it with existing practices. The performance analysis variables are also defined for these comparisons

  • Today's construction is higher and more complex. So types and amounts of needed materials for construction project are increasing and those are occurred problems in construction site such as insufficient working space, confusion of materials handling order and working circulation. Because of those problems, research of progress management system using RFID+4D has been studied, but it is impossible to manage progress and material statement in real-time. So this study analyzed problems of current research and suggested VRML based RFID+4D Progress Management System. This Study focused on system basic concept and interface is designed for system development. This research is still progressing, so it has to do more development and research. However, it could be expected construction management efficiency and automation of management tasks.

  • 본 논문에서는 다수의 AGV를 이용한 물류자동화 시뮬레이션에 대해 연구하였다. 각각의 AGV가 독립적으로 명령을 수행하도록 가상의 AGV를 제안하고 이미 연구된 AGV의 주행경로 표현방법, 경로망 구성방법을 이용하였다. 작업요구시 주어진 작업을 가장 빨리 수행 할 수 있는 AGV를 선정하고 최적 경로 계획을 수행하였다. 그리고 작업을 수행 중인 AGV는 경로 합류점에서의 교착상태(dead lock)와 충돌이 발생할 수 있는데 이를 방지하기 위한 통제구역을 정의하고 교통제어를 수행하였다.
