Abstract
Riveting is mainly used to assemble the aircraft fuselage. An average of 2~3 workers is needed to assemble an aircraft fuselage consisting of various size frames by riveting. In this study, a riveting process that enables one-person operation using an automated C-frame riveting machine was proposed for improving the efficiency of productivity. The proposed process was verified stability through structural analysis. In the range that can maintain structural stability, panel thickness of the riveting machine and shape were modified to optimizing the shape for reducing the weight of the riveting process. The structural analysis was performed by software ANSYS workbench 19.2. The optimized riveting machine was reduced by 257kg compared to the existing model.
