  In this paper, we consider folding assembly as an assembly primitive suitable
for dual-arm robotic assembly, that can be integrated in a higher level
assembly strategy. The system composed by two pieces in contact is modelled as
an articulated object, connected by a prismatic-revolute joint. Different
grasping scenarios were considered in order to model the system, and a simple
controller based on feedback linearisation is proposed, using force torque
measurements to compute the contact point kinematics. The folding assembly
controller has been experimentally tested with two sample parts, in order to
showcase folding assembly as a viable assembly primitive.
