Abstract: Systems and methods are provided and include a computer terminal located at a flooring store that receives a measured color of a flooring product. A server receives paint product catalog information from a computer system located at a coating manufacturer facility, determines paint colors that coordinate with the flooring product based on the paint product catalog information, and runs a paint product ordering application that interacts with a web browser of the computer terminal. The computer terminal receives a paint product ordering web page from the server that enables a user to create an order for a paint product based on a selected paint color and transmits the order to the server. The server receives the order and communicates the order to the computer system at the coating manufacturer facility. The computer system receives the order for order fulfillment, including creating, packing, and shipping the paint product to the user.

Abstract: A gripper for the automated wiring of electrical components of an electrical switchgear, the gripper having at least two gripper fingers, wherein the gripper fingers delimit between them a cable guide corridor, the passage cross-section of which is bounded at a distal end of the gripper fingers by opposing gripper jaws of the gripper fingers and, with respect to the distal end, is bounded further proximally by opposing cable drives of the gripper fingers, the two gripper fingers being adjustable with respect to one another in an adjustment direction which corresponds to a cross-sectional direction of the passage cross-section in order to vary the passage cross-section via a linear adjustment unit. A corresponding robot and a corresponding method are further described.

Abstract: A positioning clip is removably attachable to a fastener of a quick-release fastener assembly on an access panel of an aircraft when the access panel is removed from the aircraft. The positioning clip holds the fastener in its full out position relative to the exterior surface of the access panel removed from the aircraft. The positioning clip attached to the fastener maintains the perpendicular orientation of the fastener relative to the exterior surface of the access panel and relative to the associated receptacle for the fastener on the structure of the aircraft when the access panel is reattached to the structure of the aircraft.
