Circu Li-ion

• Evaluate, select, and implement the simulation stack for R3's robotic disassembly cells, integrating across robot programming, middleware, and CAD environments. • Build and maintain an automated recipe validation pipeline: ingest battery pack 3D scans, run candidate disassembly recipes in simulation, check for collisions, reachability, and force limits, and output validated programs ready for deployment. • Establish and maintain a single geometric source of truth across simulation, robot controller, and CAD ensuring that coordinates validated in simulation transfer to the physical machine without manual adjustment. • Develop PLC emulation and virtual commissioning capabilities to enable high-fidelity testing of safety interlocks, sensor triggers, and I/O sequences without requiring the physical cell. • Design the simulation architecture to support layered fidelity: fast kinematic checks for rapid iteration and full dynamic simulation for final validation. • Collaborate with the middleware, perception, and mechanical design teams to ensure simulation models stay synchronized with the evolving robotic cell design. • Create CI/CD workflows for simulation: automated regression testing of recipes before deployment, version-controlled simulation assets, reproducible test environments. • Contribute to the long-term architecture for ML-assisted recipe generation using simulation as the feedback loop. • Document simulation procedures, validation criteria, and deployment best practices.
