To realize automatic robot-based electrical and electronic product assembly, we developed the handling of cables with connectors - flexible goods which are an obstacle to automation. The element technologies we developed include 3D vision sensing for cable extraction, force control for connector insertion, error recovery for improving system stability, and task-level programming for quick system start-up. We assembled FA control equipment to verify the feasibility of our developments.
