Virtual commissioning of robotic production system for arc welding
Hrubeš, Kryštof ; Szabari, Mikuláš (referee) ; Bražina, Jakub (advisor)
This thesis focuses on the design and virtual commissioning of a robotic system for arc welding. The theoretical part of the thesis is dedicated to a review of the current state of knowledge in the field of welding, with a particular emphasis on arc welding in robotics. Additionally, the review addresses the issue of virtual commissioning. In the system analysis chapter, key components of the workstation such as welding torches, power sources, wire feeders, and safety equipment were analyzed. Based on a multicriteria analysis, the optimal system variant was selected. Using the ABB Robot Studio software, a detailed model, HMI, and control algorithms were created, enabling the simulation and optimization of the welding process. In the final step, virtual commissioning was carried out in the ABB Robot Studio environment.

Machine vision implementation in the UVSSR PORTABLE CELL production system
Gómez Rojas, José Luis ; Kroupa, Jiří (referee) ; Bražina, Jakub (advisor)
This thesis investigates the integration of computer vision into Industry 4.0, utilizing the UVSSR CELL at Brno University of Technology. Focused on enhancing virtual commissioning, it introduces three innovative vision techniques linked via an OPC server to an IoT gateway. Object recognition, hand gesture control, and facial recognition are employed, improving robotic arm operations and security protocols. This integration resulted in high accuracy trained model for object detection with mAP50-90 close to 0.9, and control precision of the technologies and the virtual environment, contributing significantly to smart industry automation and setting a call for future work on top of it. The thesis covers methodology, technological implementation, and prospects for advanced, efficient machine vision systems within industry 4.0.

Virtual commissioning of a robotic welding workplace
Bielik, Ondrej ; Tůma, Zdeněk (referee) ; Vetiška, Jan (advisor)
This bachelor’s thesis deals with the virtual commissioning of a robotic workplace for arc welding. The resource part was devoted to the issue of virtual operation, management of the robotic workplace and the possibilities of programming industrial robots. The following part is focused on the arc welding technology and knowledge from the field of robotic welding. In the practical part, the welding fixture was conceptually designed, and the configuration of robotic cell was created. For the creation of the welding paths of the robot was used the ABB Robot Studio Program. The results of a comparison of technologies of the robotic and the manual welding show that robotic welding of small series production reduces the time required for product production. In the last part, the production of the welding product as a whole and the possibilities of increasing productivity of robotic workplace were discussed.

Virtual commisioning of one purpose production cell
Vala, Martin ; Bražina, Jakub (referee) ; Štěpánek, Vojtěch (advisor)
Master thesis deals with the issue of virtual commissioning and PLC programming. In the first part of the thesis a research in the field of control systems and softwares for virtual commisioning is conducted. The second part of the thesis deals mostly with NX Mechatronics concept designer software, where the initial modification of the model and its configuration for virtual commissioning takes place. The actual preparation of the model is followed by the virtual connection of the TwinCAT 3 control system and previously mentioned NX MCD using a virtual OPC server. The control program code is then created using the TwinCAT 3 development environment to control the assembly operations. This is followed by the actual virtual commissioning of single purpose station for assembly of the steel strapping machine.

Optimized Power Factor Compensation Using Capacitor Banks
Kseňak, Ján ; Hammer, Miloš (referee) ; Poliščuk, Radek (advisor)
The aim of the thesis is the design of a power factor controller for the power grid, including HMI. The theoretical part of the thesis is divided into two logical units. The first unit explain the problem of power factor correction in a linear electrical environment, without considering harmonic distortion. The second theoretical unit describes the technologies, applied in cooperative simulation environment. A virtual commissioning of the whole system was performed in the simulated environment. The empirical part of the thesis describes the architecture of the Mosaik simulation framework. Then folows description of the controller, its integral components and the HMI. In the last chapter, the whole system was put into virtual operation, in order to perform function tests. The controller was tested on change of the power factor setpoint and to test the reaction on system change, without losing the power factor compenation.
