Agile and Intelligent Manufacturing System for Automatic Assembly of a Tiny Ultrasonic Actuator

초소형 초음파 선형 모터의 조립 자동화를 위한 지능형 민첩 생산시스템

This article deals the development of Agile and Intelligent Manufacturing System(AIM) for the assembly automation of a tiny ultrasonic actuator used in camera phones and PDAs. The system consists of multi-vision modules, end-effectors, a standard base frame, dispensers, jigs and modular manipulators. Subsystems are a vision system, a force control system and a virtual reality system. Experimental results show that the assembly process for the small components in the various IT applications can be realized by the AIM system.
