An advanced automated robotic system engineered for concentric-collet drilling of aerospace holes via an electric Automated Drilling Unit (L.ADU).

Developed through a dynamic collaboration with industry leaders Lübbering and Fanuc, the ADU-bot stands as a testament to precision and efficiency in drilling operations. With the L.ADU's qualification as a standardized process, the system significantly streamlines qualification procedures, ensuring a same excellent hole quality within an automated architecture.

Available on a manually mobile base, ADU-bot offers operational flexibility across multiple product lines for optimal return on investment – the mobile base can also be integrated with AGVs or AMRs for enhanced automation.

The collaborative robot feature facilitates reliable ADU insertion into existing fixtures and drill bars with little to no infrastructure modifications required. With the capability to drill holes up to half an inch with countersink, the ADU-bot boasts impressive cycle times of, typically, less than 30 seconds per hole.

Engage in a new era of precision automation with the ADU-bot – a technological benchmark in automated concentric-collet drilling systems.
