Abstract

This paper investigates into the use of a dual arm robot system for performing manual assembly operations. The investigation is based on a case study, originating from the final assembly area of an automotive assembly plant. The motivation as well as the benefits derived from the employment of a dual arm robot are discussed. The station layout, tooling design and robot programming are elaborated. The use of a dual arm robot enables the performance of operations that are carried out by humans, while the comparison of using single arm robots offers a number of advantages, which are discussed in the paper. The assembly of a vehicle dashboard is used as the use case coming from the automotive industry.
