The Fori China project aimed to improve the productivity and ease of assembly for a cockpit. The manipulators were attached to a steel structure that is used for assisting the operator while installing the cockpit assembly into the vehicle. After the cockpit is attached to the manipulator, it is conveyed to the install location, the goal is to reduce potential of damage to the workpiece. Once the workpiece is located within the vehicle, the manipulator holds the panel until tightening of the bolts is completed.
The manipulator has improved production efficiency, reduced product damage, and most importantly improve safety for the operators. For more information about Fori's aerospace tooling, please visit our website. |
