On-site calibration technology is an important technical means for calibration of fixed gamma dose instruments in large nuclear facilities. The two key factors that affect the calibration effect are: the calibration source and the agreed true value. This paper studies the characteristics of the...

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to illustrate the importance of redesigning, reusing, remanufacturing, recovering, recycling and reducing (6R) to sustainable manufacturing and discuss the general procedure to reconfigure robots. Two critical challenges in adopting industrial robots in small...

Purpose – Aims to show how sensor networks can be used to effectively allow industrial robots to handle unpredicted movements within their workcells. Design/methodology/approach – Presents the concept of using sensor networks, using off‐the‐shelf technologies, to sense in real time...
