Computer-assisted workpiece assembly especially for vehicles, involves sending equipment-non-specific control commands to implement assembly process(es) from central database, and converting into equipment-specific commands

摘要

The method involves identifying the tool (8) and workpiece to be mounted, sending product-specific data from the central database to the workstation and/or tool computer and/or screen, sending control commands to implement the assembly process(es), converting these into equipment-specific commands, and carrying out the assembly processes and sending actual process values to the central database or another memory (9). The method involves using at least one central database (2) with product-specific data and tool control commands in a format not specific to equipment, at least one workstation computer and/or tool computer (4) for transmitting control commands to the tool (8), at least one display screen (5), a tool and a tool identification detector or input device. An Independent claim is also included for an arrangement for computer-assisted workpiece mounting.
