Robotically bent spatial metal knots: re-interpreting spatial knotting through robotic tube bending

Acadia

Lee-Su Huang and Gregory Thomas Spaw

2022-12-05

The studies presented in this project employ workflows that enable multi-planar robotic bending of metal tubes with high accuracy and repeatability using a six-axis industrial robot with a custom end-effector and external two-axis positioner (Huang, Spaw, and Kalo 2022). This enables quick fabrication and assembly of complex spatial tubular configurations without the need for jigs or falsework support.

This is a process-based design research project that reimagines traditional manual tube bending techniques with the precision and efficiency of digital formative fabrication. Leveraging the positional accuracy of industrial robots using custom tools to bend and interweave metal tubes in geometrically complex and spatially precise loops, the research follows a lineage of projects one and two, exploring the application of robotic bending of linear elements, primarily in solid-core rod form three.
