  • Patent number: 10049907
    Abstract: An automated module for assembly lines to assemble electronic devices includes a plurality of cells. Each cell includes a support structure, a control unit and at least one actuating system, operatively connected to the control unit for receiving commands and transmitting the results obtained as data to and from the control unit. The automated module includes at least one moving device, for moving at least one electronic device among the module's cells; and a supervision unit. The supervision unit interacts with each control unit of each cell, thus sending commands to control each single cell and receiving respective results from the respective control units as data; and to control the moving device for its activation, to move the electronic devices among the cells. The cells are independent and are assembled in a modular manner in the desired sequence, to perform a desired sequence of operations on the electronic device.
