EKS InTec's contribution focuses on the robot-assisted assembly of a hybrid wiring harness module within a flexible production cell. The central challenge is to design assembly processes that can be automated reproducibly while simultaneously adapting to changing requirements.
The approach goes beyond the automation of individual process steps. Instead of isolated solutions, EKS InTec pursues the structured integration of various assembly functions into a comprehensive plant and engineering concept. The goal is a technical foundation that allows for the efficient planning, implementation, and continuous improvement of process flows. This flexibility is a crucial factor for industrial implementation, especially in applications with a high degree of product variation.
For wiring harness manufacturing, this approach is particularly relevant where automation is not understood as a rigid, standalone application, but rather as a flexibly adaptable production system. The demonstrator shows how robot-assisted assembly can be integrated into a modular cell architecture, thus creating a robust foundation for future industrial applications.
EKS InTec GmbH, based in Weingarten, is an engineering and software company specializing in the digitalization and automation of industrial production facilities. The company supports clients from planning and simulation through virtual commissioning to the optimization of production processes.
