A Vision-based Solution for Determining Edge Tiles in Robotic Tiling

Proceedings of the Creative Construction e-Conference 2022, 2022
With the rapid growth of robot technology, robotic tiling to replace manual work gains increasing attention. However, existing studies may have oversimplified their working conditions in automatic tiling work, where the floor-tiling robot can only tile the middle area in a room, leaving the edge area to be tiled manually.

Automated Tile Polishing Robot

2019 International Conference on Nascent Technologies in Engineering (ICNTE), 2019
Under the present scenario tile polishing is a tedious, expensive and time consuming process with a high dependency on efficiency of human workers. This work involves the design and fabrication of an autonomous robot for polishing of tiles, granite, marble and other floorings.

Development of Mobile Tile Cladding Robot System

Proceedings of the International Symposium on Automation and Robotics in Construction (IAARC), 1991
An inner construction work robot test system has been designed and evaluated at VTT. The designed, but partially realized, robot system could reach and transfer a pay-load of 10 kg to any inner surface of such a room in any orientation, the maximum height of which is close to the required 3.2 m.

Robotic floor-tiling platform system design

IECON 2019 - 45th Annual Conference of the IEEE Industrial Electronics Society, 2019
This paper designs a robotic system for floor-tiling, which is aiming to replace the labor-intensive and repetitive tile-laying work. Firstly, the current manual tile paving process is analyzed; then according to the step of measuring and positioning of tiles in the manual process, the system framework of the robotic floor-tiling platform is designed ...

Design and development of a reconfigurable tiling robot

Intelligent Service Robotics, 2021
This paper presents a novel polyromb-based self-reconfigurable domestic floor cleaning robot called “hRhombo” that consists of four rhombus-shaped modules connected with three revolute joints. The mechanical design of the robot gives rise to an over-actuated mathematical model.

Robotized Palletization of Wall Tiles

IFAC Proceedings Volumes, 1987
Abstract A robotized manipulating system, which performs the task of quality recognition, separation and palletization of packs of wall tiles in an existing ceramic factory is described in this paper. The packs, previously marked according to their quality, arrive at the end of a production line, where the robot picks them up, arranges them in ...

Toward obstacle-specific morphology for a reconfigurable tiling robot

Journal of Ambient Intelligence and Humanized Computing, 2021
This paper proposes a novel method based on Fuzzy Logic Systems (FLSs) optimized to maximize the area coverage of a tiling robot by reconfiguring per an obstacle considering the “Infi” concept. The consideration of an infinite number of reconfigurable shapes by a tiling robot is defined as the “Infi” concept.

A Brief Review on Robotic Floor-Tiling

IECON 2018 - 44th Annual Conference of the IEEE Industrial Electronics Society, 2018
There are large quantities of tiles to be consumed every year all over the world. Developing construction robot to replace the worker to accomplish the floor-tiling task will playa key role in future construction automation. In this paper, a brief review on the research progress of the robotic floor-tiling is presented. Firstly, several kinds of manual

Robotic tile placement through adaptive control strategies

Fifth International Conference on Advanced Robotics 'Robots in Unstructured Environments, 1991
The authors investigate the use of a robot manipulator for the execution of a construction task traditionally carried out by human operators, such the placing of ceramic tiles on a surface. The motivations for a robotic approach to this field are discussed, and the specific subtask identified for investigation is described.
