Official abstract text for this publication.
The present disclosure relates to a method for teaching a laminating method as well as operating a laminating device, the both being for laminating a film element on a substrate part, in which designated path routes, in particular designated path curves, along which grippers for gripping the film element are subsequently moved to laminate the film element, are determined and taught by way of CAD data of the substrate part as well as the film element.
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A method for at least one of teaching a laminating method and operating a laminating device for the laminating of a film element on a carrier part, comprising the steps of: determining and teaching in which of the at least one designated path routes and designated path curves along which grippers configured for gripping the film element and later for lamination of the film element via a use of at least one of CAD data of the carrier part and the film element; and wherein the grippers are configured to be at least one of moved and guided by manual force. 2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the CAD data comprises at least one data record relating to at least one of a shape and a contour, such that the shape and the contour comprise a development of a surface or the carrier part to be laminated. 3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein at least one of the designated path routes and designated path curves, depending on a shape, are determined and taught on an outer contour or an edge contour of the film element. 4. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising the steps of: teaching by means of individual coordinates in which at least one of designated path routes and designated path curves, along which at least one of grippers configured for gripping the film element and at least one gripper jaw element of the grippers, are configured for later laminating the film element. 5. The method according to claim 4 , wherein at least one of the designated path routes and the designated path curves are taught by means of at least one of at least two spatial coordinates, a starting point, an end point, and a plurality of intermediate waypoints. 6. The method according to claim 4 , wherein at least one of the designated path routes and the designated path curves are interpolated by means of individual spatial coordinates. 7. The method according to claim 4 , wherein spatial coordinates are entered manually by means of at least one of an input device, a manually guided input device and a graphical surface of an input device. 8. The method according to claim 4 , wherein at least one of the designated path routes and the designated path curves are taught by means of a manual sliding or wiping movement on and/or in front of a graphic surface of an input device. 9. A method for at least one of teaching a laminating process and operating a laminating device for the laminating of a film element on a carrier part, the method comprising the steps of: teaching by manual actuation of grippers configured for gripping at least one of the film element and at least one gripper jaw element, and later moved for laminating the film in which at least one of designated path routes and designated path curves, along which the grippers are later moved for laminating the film element; and wherein the grippers are configured to be at least one of moved and guided by manual force. 10. The method according to claim 9 , wherein the grippers are configured to be manually guided to predetermined spatial coordinates. 11. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the grippers are configured to be manually moved at least partly individually or in combination along at least one of designated path routes and designated path curves. 12. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the grippers are configured to be at least partially guided individually or in combination along at least one of the designated path routes and the designated path curves, in a motor-driven manner by means of a manually operated control device. 13. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the grippers are configured to be guided at least partially individually or in combination along at least one of the designated path routes and the designated path curves, and are guided into respectively designated working positions. 14. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the grippers are configured to be guided without film or with a gripped film element, at least partially individually or in combination, along at least one of the designated path routes and the designated path curves. 15. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the grippers are configured to be guided at least partially individually or in combination along at least one of the designated path routes and the designated path curves to enable the teaching about at least one of the designated path routes and the designated path curves of the grippers prior to start of at least one of the laminating method and the laminating device. 16. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the grippers are configured to be guided at least partially individually or combined along at least one of the designated path routes and the designated path curves, to enable the teaching of a control device configured for controlling at least one of the laminating method and the laminating device and for controlling the grippers with regard to at least one of the designated path routes and the designated path curves. 17. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the first grippers are configured to be guided in dependence on gripper movements along at least one of designated path routes and designated path curves, and other grippers are configured to be guided along at least one of designated path routes and designated path curves. 18. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the grippers are configured to be guided iteratively along at least one of a plurality of path routes and designated path curves, in order to teach at least one of the designated path routes and designated path curves. 19. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the first grippers are configured to be iteratively guided along at least one of a plurality of path routes and designated path curves, in dependence on gripper movements along at least one of the designated path routes and the designated path curves, of other grippers, in order to teach at least one of the designated path routes and the designated path curves. 20. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the grippers are configured to be guided at least partially individually or in combination as a function of at least one of a movement of a carrier part receptacle and of a carrier part, in each case along at least one of the designated path routes and the designated path curves.
