Electrical cabinets for elevators control

Electrical cabinets for elevators control
Summary

Current status: Lift Control Systems requires constant training and adaptation of assembly operations to match new requirements and provide high-quality products. The components are transported with forklifts to the assembly workstation, where operators manually assemble the cabinets and test them for potential errors. However, quality, productivity, health and safety, and environmental issues still occur, and the assembly procedure and intra-shopfloor logistics are not yet optimized. The current manual labor activities increase the overall time required for efficient production times and increase the total manufacturing costs.

MASTERLY solution: A hybrid human-robot collaborative shop floor to automate intra-shop floor logistics and assembly operations for the production of electrical cabinets used for lift control. An AGV with a collaborative armcollaborates with a human operator to perform logistics operations by autonomously picking and delivering components to the assembly station. The operator installs some components with the help of an AR solution, while the mobile robot assists with the installation of electrical components using vision and force control algorithms. A smart modular gripper with integrated AI decision-making adapts its shape automatically, and AI-based vision algorithms facilitate the detection of relevant parts.
