About

Anders Thunell is a researcher advancing the frontiers of construction and manufacturing automation. His work centers on two key areas: robotic installation of reinforcement in construction and the application of digital twins in industrial robot cells. Thunell’s major contribution lies in bridging the gap between traditional, labor-intensive industries and modern automation technologies. His 2019 paper, “Towards Automated Installation of Reinforcement Using Industrial Robots” (7 citations), is a foundational study that explores how industrial robots can automate complex, manual construction tasks, addressing one of the least automated sectors. More recently, his 2024 work, “Application of Digital Twin of Robot Cell in Investment Casting Manufacturing” (2 citations), demonstrates how digital twins can enhance simulation, monitoring, and automation in precision manufacturing. By integrating robotics with digital transformation, Thunell is helping to pave the way for smarter, more efficient factories and construction sites. His research is particularly notable for its practical focus on real-world implementation, offering a blueprint for automating processes that have long resisted change. For students and researchers, Thunell’s work represents a compelling intersection of robotics, digitalization, and industrial innovation.
