Mark III, A New Approach to High-Variant, Medium-Volume Flexible Automatic Assembly Cells

摘要

The MARK III FAA (Flexible Automatic Assembly) cell was designed to minimise the risk factors associated with FAA. This FAA cell is stepwise upgradeable and adopts the Sub-batch principle and reversed material flow solutions. It Allows for the assembly of products with an annual volume Normally too low to justify automation. The MARK III FAA Cell was implemented with the FACE programing and Control system, a PC-based, modular programming and Of unpredictable order schemes and leads to very low Programming costs.
