In this video, Seymour Advanced Technologies, LMI Technologies, and Mecademic demonstrates an automated micro-assembly system designed for high-precision applications in medical devices, life sciences, aerospace, and defense.
Watch the interview and live demonstration as we showcase a highly challenging micro-assembly task: inserting a 0.016-inch (16 thou) wire into a needle with a 0.017-inch (17 thou) inner diameter (ID). Utilizing advanced 3D vision guidance and compact industrial robotics, the assembly is completed reliably without damaging the delicate components.
