AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Manual assembly of large-scale modular radars is laborious, time-consuming, and difficult due to the need for high torque operations in hard-to-reach locations, requiring significant manual effort.

Method used

An automated radar mounting system utilizing two robotic devices, a first robotic device with a larger work area and a second robotic device with higher precision, controlled by a central controller to position and install parts on a radar array chassis, with integrated scanning to ensure correct part installation.

Benefits of technology

Facilitates efficient and precise assembly of radar arrays by automating the process, reducing assembly time and improving accuracy and repeatability of part installation.

Abstract

An automated radar assembly system is disclosed comprising: a first robotic device coupled to a cradle, the first robotic device having a first working area; a second robotic device coupled to the first robotic device by means of the cradle, the second robotic device having a second working area that is smaller than the first working area; a part holder coupled to the cradle, the part holder being arranged to carry a part; and a controller operatively coupled to the first robotic device and the second robotic device, the controller being configured to: cause the first robotic device to position the second robotic device at a first location relative to a radar array chassis, and cause the second robotic device to pick up the part from the part holder and install the part at a second location on the radar array chassis.
