本文提出一种基于仿真的方法,实现对电气端子在DIN导轨上力控装配的自动化,该任务传统上因编程复杂和产品多样性而困难。方法结合深度强化学习(DRL)与可参数化机器人技能,在物理仿真环境中进行训练。为真实模拟卡扣式装配过程,开发并评估了两种连接模型:基于梁理论的解析模型和在MuJoCo物理引擎中实现的刚体模型,两者均能准确再现交互力,用于训练DRL智能体。机器人技能采用pitasc框架构建,支持模块化与复用。训练使用Soft Actor-Critic(SAC)和Twin Delayed Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient(TD3)算法,并应用领域随机化提升鲁棒性。训练策略直接迁移到物理UR10e机器人系统,无需额外调参。实验表明,在仿真与真实场景中成功率均达100%,即使存在显著的位置与旋转偏差仍表现良好。系统对新类型端子和安装位置具有强泛化能力,显著降低人工编程工作量。本工作展示了仿真学习与模块化技能结合在小批量制造中柔性、可扩展自动化的潜力。未来将探索混合学习方法、环境参数自动配置及连接模型的进一步优化以支持设计集成。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
This paper presents a simulation-driven approach for automating the force-controlled assembly of electrical terminals on DIN-rails, a task traditionally hindered by high programming effort and product variability. The proposed method integrates deep reinforcement learning (DRL) with parameterizable robot skills in a physics-based simulation environment. To realistically model the snap-fit assembly process, we develop and evaluate two types of joining models: analytical models based on beam theory and rigid-body models implemented in the MuJoCo physics engine. These models enable accurate simulation of interaction forces, essential for training DRL agents. The robot skills are structured using the pitasc framework, allowing modular, reusable control strategies. Training is conducted in simulation using Soft Actor-Critic (SAC) and Twin Delayed Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient (TD3) algorithms. Domain randomization is applied to improve robustness. The trained policies are transferred to a physical UR10e robot system without additional tuning. Experimental results demonstrate high success rates (up to 100%) in both simulation and real-world settings, even under significant positional and rotational deviations. The system generalizes well to new terminal types and positions, significantly reducing manual programming effort. This work highlights the potential of combining simulation-based learning with modular robot skills for flexible, scalable automation in small-batch manufacturing. Future work will explore hybrid learning methods, automated environment parameterization, and further refinement of joining models for design integration.
