Abstract
Many micro products in use today are manufactured using semi-automatic assembly. Handling, assembly and transport of the parts are especially labour intense processes. Automation of these processes holds a large potential, especially if flexible, modular microfactories can be developed. This paper focuses on the issues that have to be taken into consideration in order to go from a semi-automatic production into an automated microfactory.
The application in this study is a switch consisting of 7 parts. The development of a microfactory setup to take care of the automated assembly of the switch is described in this paper.
