Problem

  • Automate the assembly of overhead PSU's (Passenger Service Units):
    • Components include lights, sockets, buttons, switches, speaker and masks
    • Components are stud mounted onto a base panel
Solution: Robotic PSU Assembly Workcell
  • A robotic PSU assembly work cell which includes a servo driven re-configurable XY End Effector that grasps various size parts. Each of the four robotic fingers includes a load cell to measure grasping force of small and large parts.
