Abstract
For production of aircraft doors using innovative lightweight materials, a fully automated assembly process was developed. Therefor a door structure of an overwing-exit-door is to be joined from thermoplastic composite material components. The innovative material enable the use of new joining concepts. The assembly process was virtually simulated in order to forecast production time, process sequence, provision of operating resources and investment costs. Relevant manufacturing equipment was designed and accessibilities of the clamping and joining tools as well as collision areas were determined and optimized. To quality management, process control concept was developed with which geometric deviations of the components can be automatically compensated.
