In the world of
#electronicsmanufacturing, automating through-hole technology soldering (THT) can make a true difference in
#PCB assembly.
It improves efficiency.
It strengthens quality and reliability.
That is exactly what we explore in one of the MODUL4R use cases, the Swiss Smart Factory use case.
The setup is based on a modular cell architecture, where multiple interconnected devices work together dynamically.
Why does that matter?
Because our modular approach makes the system easier to adapt in production changes.
It allows us to:
✔️ Integrate new components, such as a secondary soldering station, more easily.
✔️ Validate different transport layouts quickly.
But what actually moves the needle for the system's flexibility is the 𝟯𝗗 𝘃𝗶𝗿𝘁𝘂𝗮𝗹 𝗲𝗻𝘃𝗶𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 by TTS.
It plays a dual role:
1️⃣ Working as a 𝘀𝗶𝗺𝘂𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗼𝗼𝗹, it helps the team to assess performance, compare different configurations, and extract useful statistics.
2️⃣ Working as a real-time 𝗗𝗶𝗴𝗶𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗦𝗵𝗮𝗱𝗼𝘄 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗵𝘆𝘀𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗳𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆, it synchronizes with data streams from the robot and transport system to monitor operations in real time.
This is what modular
#manufacturing looks like in practice. 😉
Greater flexibility. Faster validation. Better visibility into the production process.
