Case: Screwdriving in Electronics
Case outline
| Item | Detail |
|---|---|
| Process | Screwdriving into small assemblies with multiple variants |
| Problem | Torque variation and missing screws reaching customers |
| Approach | Robot with programmable torque and result logging |
| Outcome | Every fastening recorded with a pass or fail |
Implementation notes
- Result logging per screw is often a customer requirement, not a nice extra.
- Bit wear changes torque; plan for a replacement interval.
- Variant handling is easier with a parameterised program than with separate programs.
Torque specifications come from the product design. Confirm them with the responsible engineer.
