Within the project, a system for the automated production of abrasive belt nests (belts inserted into each other as a packaging unit) is to be developed, which above all takes into account the flexibility requirements with regard to the different abrasive belts as well as the productivity requirements with regard to economic and technical parameters.

The principle of nesting developed at the University of Dortmund is to be further developed and made ready for the market. In addition to a constructive design and optimisation of the actual nesting principle into a modular and flexible system, this requires the integration of further functions such as buffering and quality control.
