Where accuracy is concerned, robots have traditionally relied on repeatability. In the past, robotic accuracy has not been published or developed to a level of maturity acceptable to standard production processes. Critical aerospace manufacturing techniques such as fastening and drilling were historically not held to tight tolerances. Typical tolerances for airframe assembly fastening were in the + 0.030″ range. The standard is set by the positional requirement for drilling of fastener holes which has been taken as a key target application for robotics in aerospace manufacturing. Because there are many factors that influence robot accuracy, it is important to define…
