Flexible manufacturing system for the processing and production of multi-part subassemblies, in particular subassemblies of semi-finished vehicle bodies

摘要: The invention is concerned with the design of processing stations for processing, by welding technology, semi-finished vehicle body subassemblies (5) within framework a flexible manufacturing system. Thereby, frame-like work piece carriers (1) support members (4) are used loose positioning components (5), where also capable accepting differently configured subassemblies. transfer line (9) not planned as single line, but includes only input station (10), position (6) and output (11). Next to these (10, 11), storage (14) arrayed, which connected one another transport system (20) crosses (9). In this manner it made possible store processed or bypass next if receiving (a carrier), out order. For path, vehicles ( 27) their own transverse transporter (28) utilized, taking from transferring (work carriers) them.
