Many of the fastening systems built by Broetje-Automation have two separate positioning units, e.g. upper and lower anvil. These units are usually traversed interdependently.
The axis configuration can be adapted to suit particular needs, e.g. to meet specific process and space requirements.
The new BA-robot Power RACe owns all the requirements for all aircraft part assemblies. As highly flexible, with an automated positioning system the Power RACe fulfills all requirements perfectly in processing time, performance and precision in the assembly of aircraft parts.
Different components, as wing box, stabilizers, fuselage etc., can be automated drilled and riveted by the mobile robot.
Stronger, faster, more precise
New, flexible and modular solutions that already take tomorrow's requirements into account today, are always needed in aircraft construction: to produce different types of aircrafts, including future designs. This is exactly what the new flexible MPAC riveting system of Broetje-Automation is designed to do.
We have put a special focus on the automated drilling and riveting of shells and skin panels for fuselages as well as for wings. An innovative 10-axes positioner makes the system extremely adaptable.
Integrated into the new MPAC system is our successfully established automated-electrical riveting system designed to rivet, for example, stringers, ribs, skin panels and shells.
Advantages at a glance:
The C-frame riveting system is the "classic" riveter that can rivet everything from small to large fuselage panels. The model by Broetje-Automation is known for its high precision and robust longevity.
Advantages at a glance:
The IPAC system convinces with lasting functional reliability: it facilitates the fast assembly of fuselage skin panel and wing panels with the utmost degree of reliability.
Advantages at a glance:
Automated processing of 360° aircraft fuselage panels requires the precise harmonization of all single components. The ISAC is a virtuoso when it comes to optimizing the travel of 12 NC-controlled axes for a specific process step. The tuned interplay between end effectors and the fastener feed system allows for drilling and riveting processes to meet the demanding quality requirements in aviation. Our ISAC systems convince with:
Standard robots are ideal for easy automation. High-performance, low initial investment cost and most of all, the adaptability of robots make them the perfect choice for efficient automation solutions. Our Cell-Control® software developed specifically for robotics significantly improves positioning accuracy and repeatability of standard robots.
Exemplary Interplay:
Broetje-Automation configures systems for you that are design for the automated riveting of the substructures of skin panels and shells with flexible component holding fixtures. The systems are characterized by extremely valuable advantages:
Chips and cuttings falling into inaccessible areas pose the main problem with drilling in closed structures. Subsequent cleaning is often not possible.
Our VPAC systems offer a clean drilling process with orbital technology and a strong chip extraction system. With this system there will be no more chips from chipping.
Our wing riveting system meets the highest demands for modern precision drilling and riveting of fuel tight wing structures.
