ABOUT

The TOFAS use case focuses on introducing advanced human–robot collaboration into hybrid vehicle battery pack assembly processes. This process is currently manual and exhibits challenges such as variability in assembly quality and cycle time, as well as sustained ergonomic strain. The objective of this pilot is to reduce the mental and physical fatigue arising from repetitive activities and the precision handling of heavy components, while keeping the operator in the loop. In parallel, the use case aims to improve process consistency, thereby reducing the number of errors, and reduce cycle time.

The envisaged JARVIS solution deploys collaborative mobile robots operating alongside human workers to support physically demanding and repetitive tasks, while enabling operators to control of sequencing and quality-related decisions. Overall, this case aims to demonstrate how adaptive manufacturing systems and collaborative robotics can enhance resilience, ergonomics, and adaptability in automotive industries.
