Case Study: New Energy Drive Unit Handling for EV Assembly

New-energy drive units are critical assemblies that need controlled handling during EV production. HB Torque's application portfolio includes new-energy drive handling installations using assisted manipulators.

The Assembly Challenge

The handling task may involve lifting a drive unit from a pickup position, transferring it through the workstation and positioning it accurately for the next assembly step.

Solution Approach

An industrial manipulator supports the load while the operator guides the component. The manipulator structure and end-effector are selected around the drive unit geometry, center of gravity, movement path and installation position.

Project Inputs

Useful engineering information includes component weight and dimensions, pickup location, placement location, required rotation or orientation, working radius and available mounting space.
