Workpiece assembly system and method for assembling workpiece

摘要

A workpiece assembly system (10, 20, 30, 40) includes a first manual station (S M ) in which a person (M) performs an operation of providing a first component set (50S) onto a pallet (P); a first robot station (S A ) in which a robot (R) performs an operation of assembling the first component set (50S) into a workpiece (W) on a surface plate (Q, Q1, Q2); and a conveyor (C1, C2, C3, C4) that conveys the pallet (P) and the surface plate (Q, Q1, Q2) from the first robot station (S A ) to a subsequent manual station. After the robot (R) has removed the first component set (50S) from the pallet (P) and before the robot (R) finishes the operation in the first robot station (S A ), the pallet (P) is conveyed to the subsequent manual station prior to the surface plate (Q, Q1, Q2).
