Component Influence-Driven Fastener Reduction for Robotic Disassemblability-Aware Design Simplification
Takuya Kiyokawa, Tomoki Ishikura, Shingo Hamada +2
To accelerate automated remanufacturing, robotic disassembly must be considered during the product design phase. However, designers currently lack quantitative feedback to identify…
Industrial-Grade Robust Robot Vision for Screw Detection and Removal under Uneven Conditions
Tomoki Ishikura, Genichiro Matsuda, Takuya Kiyokawa +1
As the amount of used home appliances is expected to increase despite the decreasing labor force in Japan, there is a need to automate disassembling processes at recycling plants.…
Hierarchical Planning and Scheduling for Reconfigurable Multi-Robot Disassembly Systems under Structural Constraints
Takuya Kiyokawa, Tomoki Ishikura, Shingo Hamada +2
This study presents a system integration approach for planning schedules, sequences, tasks, and motions for reconfigurable robots to automatically disassemble constrained structure…
Affordance-Guided Dual-Armed Disassembly Teleoperation for Mating Parts
Gen Sako, Takuya Kiyokawa, Kensuke Harada +3
Robotic non-destructive disassembly of mating parts remains challenging due to the need for flexible manipulation and the limited visibility of internal structures. This study pres…
Modular Vacuum-Based Fixturing System for Adaptive Disassembly Workspace Integration
Haohui Pan, Takuya Kiyokawa, Tomoki Ishikura +3
The disassembly of small household appliances poses significant challenges due to their complex and curved geometries, which render traditional rigid fixtures inadequate. In this p…
