The automatic off-line generation of welding robot trajectories with emphasis on kinematic feasibility and collision detection

This thesis defines and discusses the problems involved in automatic off-line programming of a robot welding workstation with a minimum of human intervention, and proposes some solutions. The work is motivated by the desire for faster and more powerful programming capabilities combined with reduced...
