Server Assembly Robotic Work Cell

Situation

A large contract manufacturer needed to scale up production and reduce cost for assembling their server boxes.

Problem

The server configurations changed often and precise positioning was needed for the CPU.

Additionally, achieving the required ROI required a low cost approach.

Owens Design Solution

Our engineers designed a flexible robotic workstation that could be quickly configured for new products. The system architecture incorporated monitoring for insertion forces, screwdriver torque, and other critical parameters.
