Conventional robotic wire arc additive manufacturing technologies enable the rapid production of moderate-sized components using low-cost wire feedstocks and robotic welding systems.Efforts to date have primarily focused on single voopoo v.thru pro replacement pods robot solutions.However, new configurations are possible with coordination of multiple robots and multi-degree of freedom positioners.This paper describes a new multi-agent control paradigm that enables multiple robots to work collaboratively on manufacturing a single component on a rotating platform.
The advantages of this approach are increased deposition rate and productivity.This paper demonstrates this pink luster dust edible control strategy on a 19 degrees-of-freedom platform based on three wire arc additive systems surrounding a single rotating platform.
