Repeatable assembly, screw by screw
Cobots drive screws, press-fit parts and put sub-assemblies together with the same torque and position every time, right beside your operators.
Why automate it
What changes on your floor
No missed or loose screws
A torque-controlled screwdriver runs every screw to the same setting and confirms it is seated.
Less strain on operators
Repetitive driving and fitting moves to the robot. People handle the steps that need judgement.
Fits your bench
Collaborative robots can share the workbench with your team, so the line layout barely changes.
The cell
How it works
- 01
Fix the product
The product sits in a simple fixture so every hole and part is in a known position.
- 02
Feed the screw
A screw feeder presents the next screw at the tip of the bit.
- 03
Drive to torque
The robot drives the screw to the set torque and checks that it is seated.
- 04
Next point
It moves to the next screw. When all are done, the finished part is released.
