Development of Robot-Supported Resin Dispensing and Hot Molding Process for Packaging Transparent LED Signage

In this research, robot-supported model for resin dispensing and molding manufacturing process is suggested. Industrial robot substitutes labor force of workers during loading and unloading LED substrate sheet with non-cured resin and collaborative robot substitutes workers for resin dispensing with designated pattern and amount. Those processes were conducted manually and manual operation caused non-uniform quality by porosity and thickness error and low productivity. Automating this process can reduce process time, excess amount of resin, and increase productivity and quality of final LED signage.
