ProjectionWorks is a patented 3D optical projection software developed by Delta Sigma Company to display 3D objects fully scaled onto 3D surfaces. ProjectionWorks imports data from 3D CAD software and allows the user to add visual assembly process information directly to physical object.
Seems like robots could be used to install the fasteners, which will help further keep the costs down and increase output and efficiency. I am sure they’re already planning it.
I have worked in the aviation industry (repair center, airline, manufacturer) for 30 plus years. While I appreciate and will use any advance in tooling or process that will make my job easier, there is a downside to relying on technology too heavily in a build process. My observations, after working at Lockheed Martin Marietta (F22 & F35) for 17 years, are that it is still vital to have employees who have the a thorough understanding of their job. There is a tendency to try to make a build process that is “idiot proof”. It is very tempting to think that applying more technology to a problem will enable you to solve any problem. Sometimes the result is that you end up with employees who are building the aircraft lack basic skills because no resources are being directed toward properly training them. Aircraft mechanics are supposed to be able to read a blueprint, a process spec, or any other documents specific to that job, and go out to build the aircraft. I have found it very frustrating watching and working with fellow mechanics who lack the proper skills (problem solving being #1) because the company they work for insists that more technology is the answer. The technology demonstrated in this video works fine when you have a large skin in an open area, but not in a more confined space. We tried this in Marietta, but gave up on about 80% of it due too a variety of issues. The solution: Utilizing the Mylar blue prints. If you already have a tool that is simple and works why change? We have had some very costly mistakes take place on the F35 program due too the lack off proper training. People are your most effective tool in the end.
Who writes the script for this shit? Why does every B2B technology video sound like this? Is it the hope of the marketing and sales people that a buzzword every three makes the technology sound more impressive? Yes - projection mapping seems like a great help in wiring harness building, but holy crap stop being so thick. Literally no one is impressed by your use of the word "utilize".
Hello, Nice video you have shared here & thanks for this. Recently I had contacted with Peterstechnology.com & they said that they are using wire harness techniques for their cable manufacturing process. Now I am able to understand that what is wire harness assembly exactly.
Hi, Nice post on wire harness assembly. Thanks for understanding me in a better way. Recently one of my friends ordered a bulk amount of medical cable & contacted with some of the reputed manufacturing industry like Peterstechnology.com. Some of them said that they also providing wire harness assembly. So I had some doubt on that which you cleared here.
Yes. The technology can be used on any type of wire harness board. Aerospace, automotive, washing machines, refrigerators, etc. Any harness that has layout data can be projected.
