Abstract
In modern automotive production, high-tech robotic complexes and assembly lines are widely used for all four main production stages: pressing, welding, coating and assembly. The paper views industrial robot-assisted high-tech incomplete vehicle production using robotic manipulators. Studies have been conducted on the efficiency and productivity of automotive production through the use of a robotic assembly. Studies have been conducted on the efficiency and productivity of automotive production using a robotic assembly. A brief overview of scientific works on automation of production using robotic systems is presented. The discussed robotic complexes include various robots: assemblers, manipulators, auxiliary robots. The payback period of the robotic complex ranges from three to five years. Robotic complexes are successfully used in various factories, e.g. 115 robots are used at Volkswagen, 112 robots are used at Renault, 106 robots are used at Nissan. The average time period for assembling one basic vehicle product at the factory is 25 hours. The main characteristics of a robotic automobile assembly such as cycle of the assembly line; work pace; assembly line load factor are viewed. The influence of the main characteristics of the assembly line on productivity in robotic automotive production is estimated. The results show an increase in product output of up to 10% with an increase in the load factor by one tenth. The robotic assembly line efficiency calculation for automotive production shows that within five years the increase in net profit when using just one robotic assembly line will amount to about five million rubles. In addition, the output of products will significantly increase with RPA in automotive production. The effectiveness of using a robotized assembly line in automotive production is also shown.
