Abstract: A system includes a robot, a measuring device, and a processor. The robot is configured to dispense, based on at least one process parameter, a liquid adhesive bead onto a substrate. The measuring device is configured to measure at least one characteristic of the bead shape. The processor is configured to determine, based on a reference bead shape and at least one reference process parameter, response surface profile of the liquid adhesive. The processor is configured to compare the measured bead shape to a reference bead shape and, responsive to determining the measured bead shape is different than the reference bead shape, determine, based on the response surface profile, at least one updated process parameter. The updated process parameter is configured to cause the robot to dispense a second bead having the reference bead shape.

Abstract: Disclosed are polymeric foamed compositions, foam padded materials that include such polymeric foamed compositions disposed on a sheet material, and packaging articles (e.g., envelopes) made from such foam padded materials. The polymeric foamed composition on the sheet material has a plurality of foamed structures formed from the foamable composition attached to the sheet material by a layer of the foamable composition, and the plurality foam structures each having a hollow core and a foam exterior shell.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for optimizing a process of manufacturing a product. In one aspect, the method comprises repeatedly performing the following: i) selecting a configuration of input settings for manufacturing a product, based on a causal model that measures causal relationships between input settings and a measure of a quality of the product; ii) determining the measure of the quality of the product manufactured using the configuration of input settings; and iii) adjusting, based on the measure of the quality of the product manufactured using the configuration of input settings, the causal model.

Abstract: A method includes dispensing, by a robot within a manufacturing environment using at least one process parameter, one or more linear beads of a liquid adhesive representative of a target complex dispense path onto a surface of a substrate, the linear beads extending along a longitudinal axis and having a bead shape transverse to the longitudinal axis based on the at least one process parameter; and measuring, via a one-dimensional scan by a measuring device positioned within the manufacturing environment, at a plurality of discrete positions along the longitudinal axis of the linear beads, at least one characteristic of the bead shape.
