Turnkey Automation for Assembly Systems

GLOBAL delivers the joining processes your product needs as part of one system, including robotic screwdriving and nut running with torque and angle verification, press-fit and insertion, pick-and-place, and adhesive or sealant dispensing. Tools are selected for the fastener type, torque range, and access, and critical fastening events can record torque, angle, and pass/fail results. Each critical step is confirmed before the part advances.

GLOBAL engineers and supplies the presentation media, fixturing, and nest tooling as part of the turnkey scope so parts arrive in a known position. Components can be presented in trays, magazines, or feeders, on conveyors, in fixtures, or picked from bins with vision, depending on geometry, weight, and volume. Presentation and nest design are worked out from your part samples and drawings during engineering.

When the product family is defined up front, GLOBAL builds the system for quick changeover using selectable part programs, quick-change or adjustable tooling and fixtures, and presentation sized for the part range, with vision absorbing normal variation. Part mix and changeover frequency are reviewed during design so the system fits the range of work it will run. The goal is a repeatable changeover your operators can run day to day.

GLOBAL designs from your required takt time and balances the work across the cell or line so no single operation limits the rate, accounting for robot motion, fastening or dispensing dwell, part presentation and transfer, and inspection. Where one station cannot hold the rate, work is split across stations or additional robots. Expected throughput is confirmed in simulation before build.

The system is designed with poka-yoke checks such as part-present and orientation sensing, fastener counting, and torque, angle, and vision verification so a missed or out-of-spec step is caught before the part advances. It can capture torque values, test results, serial numbers, and process parameters through the controls to build a documented history for each unit. GLOBAL configures the data collection around your quality and traceability requirements.

As part of the turnkey scope, GLOBAL runs the system through factory acceptance and a run-off on your parts to confirm cycle time, quality checks, and fastening or dispensing results before it ships. On site, the team installs, commissions, and validates the system against the agreed production and quality requirements. This staged approach carries the project from offline simulation and acceptance through a proven launch.

A turnkey project includes operator and maintenance training on running the system, loading programs, clearing faults, and routine care, along with technical documentation and a recommended spare-parts list covering tooling, grippers, sensors, and wear items. Ongoing support is available for troubleshooting and for adding parts or stations as production evolves. Because GLOBAL also provides automation staffing, additional engineering resources can be arranged when internal needs grow.
