Assembly & part handling
Assembly automation starts with the part presentation and required placement quality. Choose tooling, sensing and fixtures around real tolerances before comparing arm specifications.
Decision factors
Validate the deployment, not only the spec sheet.
- Define part variation and cycle time
- Test gripping and placement
- Check repeatability versus absolute accuracy
Limits & trade-offs
What the product page may not tell you.
- Arm reach alone does not establish process feasibility
