A Simulation-Based Grasp Planner for Enabling Robotic Grasping during Composite Sheet Layup

Composites are increasingly becoming a material of choice in the aerospace and automotive industries. Currently, many composite parts are produced by manually laying up sheets on complex molds. Composite sheet layup requires executing two main tasks: (1) grasping a sheet and (2) draping it on the mo…
