A system for assembling a vehicle platform includes a robotic assembly system having at least two robotic arms, a vision system capturing images of an assembly frame, and a control system configured to control the robotic assembly system to assemble the vehicle platform based on images from the vision system, force feedback from the at least two robotic arms, and a component location model. The control system is further configured to identify assembly features of a first component and a second component of the vehicle platform from the images, operate the robotic arms to orient the first component and the second component to respective nominal positions based on the images and the component location model, and operate the robotic arms to assemble the first component to the second component based on the force feedback.

Prior to the rolling of a flat rolling material (2) on a rolling line that includes a number of roll stands (1), a control system (3) receives actual variables (I) and target variables (Z) of the material (2). The control system (3) determines desired values (S*) for the roll stands (1), based on the actual (I) and target variables (Z) in combination with a model (10) of the rolling line, such that expected variables (E1) of the material (2) after its rolling are aligned as far as possible with the target variables (Z) and transfers the desired values (S*) to the roll stands (1) such that the material (2) is rolled according to the desired values (S*). The target variables (Z) comprise at least one freely selectable, discrete characteristic variable (K1 to K5, K2′ to K4′, K2″ to K4″) defining the contour (K) of the flat rolling material (2).

In various embodiments, a wearable object engine generates wearable objects. The wearable object engine represents a digital design of a wearable object as toolpaths. In operation, the wearable object engine generates visual guidance that indicates a portion of the design based on the toolpaths, a configuration associated a nozzle of a fabrication device, and a configuration associated with a portion of a human body. The wearable object engine causes the visual guidance to be displayed on the portion of the human body. As the nozzle moves over the portion of the human body, the nozzle extrudes fabrication material that forms the portion of the wearable object directly on the portion of the human body. Advantageously, a designer may control the nozzle to fabricate the wearable object while receiving visual guidance based on the digital design.
