  • Publication number: 20240083029
    Abstract: A controller for controlling an operation of a robot to execute a task is provided. The controller comprises a memory configured to store a set of dynamic movement primitives (DMPs) associated with the task. The set of DMPs comprise a set of at least two dynamical systems: a function representing point attractor dynamics and a forcing function corresponding to a learned demonstration of the task. The controller comprises a processor configured to transform the set of DMPs to a set of constrained DMPs (CDMPs) by determining a perturbation function associated with the forcing function. The perturbation function is associated with a set of operational constraints. The processor is further configured to solve, a non-linear optimization problem for the set of CDMPs based on the set of operational constraints and generate, a control input for controlling the robot for executing the task, based on the solution.

  • Publication number: 20240009711
    Abstract: Disclosed is a system and method for sorting copper-bearing ore to select portions having a target copper content. The system includes an analysis and selection station including first magnetic resonance analyzer measuring the copper content of input ore and a controlled diverter to divert portions of the input ore to a collection path when the copper content meets or exceeds a predetermined cut-off value. The predetermined cut-off is adjusted by a controller in response to the first magnetic resonance analyzer. A second magnetic resonance analyzer measures the copper content of the ore in a product path. That measurement is fed back to the controller to fine tune the adjusted cut-off value above, up or down, to optimize the yield of ore having the targeted copper content. The system may include a station for sizing the input ore, a station for sizing the output ore, and a station for sizing waste produced by the system.

  • Publication number: 20230399718
    Abstract: A method and system for recovering a high yield of low carbon ferrochrome metal from chromite ore and low carbon ferrochrome metal produced by the method. A thermochemistry calculated mixture of feed materials including aluminum granules, burnt limestone, and chromite ore are provided into a DC plasma arc furnace. The aluminum granules are produced from aluminum scrap. The feed materials are heated upon entering the furnace free board through a feed mix injection system, whereupon the aluminum in the aluminum granules produces an exothermic reaction reducing the chromium oxide and iron oxides in the chromite ore to produce molten low carbon ferrochrome metal with molten slag floating thereon. The molten low carbon ferrochrome metal is extracted, solidified into ingots, crushed into coarse pieces or fines of low carbon ferrochrome metal product. The molten slag is extracted, quenched and solidified into slag particles product.

  • Publication number: 20220064756
    Abstract: A method and system for recovering a high yield of low carbon ferroalloy, e.g., low carbon ferrochrome, from chromite and low carbon ferrochrome produced by the method. A stoichiometric mixture of feed materials including scrap aluminum granules, lime, silica sand, and chromite ore are provided into a plasma arc furnace. The scrap aluminum granules are produced from used aluminum beverage containers. The feed materials are heated, whereupon the aluminum in the aluminum granules produces an exothermic reaction reducing the chromium oxide and iron oxide in the chromite to produce molten low carbon ferrochrome with molten slag floating thereon. The molten low carbon ferrochrome is extracted, solidified and granulated into granules of low carbon ferrochrome. The molten slag is extracted, solidified and granulated into granules of slag.
