About Automated Assembly Equipment

Automated assembly services provide machinery and systems designed to automate the production assembly process. Services may include equipment and control system design, CAD / CAM support, systems integration, turnkey systems, on-site support and training, and in-house production.  Additional services include factory automation, manufacturing cells, process development, and in-house prototyping or testing.  Many different automated assembly equipment technologies may be used depending on the application.  These automated assembly equipment technologies include assembly presses, automatic insertion, brazing and soldering, clinching and stitchfolding, eyeleting, injected metal (IMA), insert drivers, impact and non-impact riveting, screwdriving and nutdriving, seal and o-ring installation, and welding.  Configurations for automated assembly equipment include carousel systems, continuous motion, inline indexing, multi-station, nonsynchronous, rotary or dial, synchronous, and walking beam transfer.  Additional equipment used in an assembly system include conveyors, lifts, pick and place equipment, marking equipment, vision systems, pallet transfer systems, palletizers, testing equipment, high speed assembly, and flexible assembly equipment.  High-speed assembly systems are used for high-volume production.  Typical high-speed assembly rates are 200-1000 parts per minute or more.  Flexible assembly systems are of modular construction to allow for future expansion or process refinement.  Additional automated assembly equipment features include powder or bulk handling, cleanroom applications, and custom equipment design.
