Project Overview

This case marks Korea’s first automated solution for modular housing window assembly, combining a KUKA industrial robot, a custom-designed robotic gripper, and a High Payload Track Motion system.
Space Factory introduced this automation system to reduce construction costs and ensure consistent quality in modular housing production.

Background & Objective

Traditionally, skilled workers manually assembled window frames on-site, which was time-consuming and labor-intensive. Meeting diverse client requirements also demanded a large workforce. In addition, the wide and complex work environment made real-time monitoring and process control difficult.

The goal of this project was to automate the window assembly process to significantly reduce work time, establish a standardized production system for consistent quality, and enhance process management through real-time production monitoring.

구성요소

로봇	KUKA KR 210 R3100 Industrial Robot With a maximum payload of 210kg and a working radius of 3,065mm, this robot is optimized for heavy-duty, high-precision operations.
주변기기	These enable precise alignment and movement of wooden materials, automatic assembly of upper and lower window components, and transport of completed frames.

작업순서

STEP 1.	Material Input : Wooden materials are accurately aligned and transported using the custom-designed robotic gripper.
STEP 2.	Window Assembly : Based on a modular production system, upper and lower window components are assembled automatically.
STEP 3.	Frame Transfer : Completed wooden frames are safely and precisely moved by the robot.
