See three Meca500 ultra-compact 6-axis industrial robots running a synchronized multi-task electronics assembly cell on a motherboard—all fitting within a tight 2x2 ft (60x60 cm) space!
Controlled and synchronized by a Unitronics PLC over EtherNet/IP, this demo showcases high-precision pick-and-place, fluid dispensing, and automated screwdriving without requiring external controller cabinets.
⚙️ Assembly Cell Breakdown:
• Robot 1 (Center): Heat sink pick-and-place positioning
• Robot 2 (Left): High-precision thermal compound / fluid dispensing
• Robot 3 (Right): Automated screwdriving & component fastening
📌 Chapters:
Overview: 3-Part Assembly on Motherboard (ATX West Demo)
Pick-and-Place: Heat Sink Component Positioning
High-Precision Fluid Dispensing Operation
Heat Sink Placement & Final Alignment
Automated Screwdriving & Fastening
