  • Publication number: 20190152621
    Abstract: A manufacturing and assembly method of parts of an aircraft comprising the following several steps. Providing a first aircraft part comprising a receptor surface on which a coupling surface of a second aircraft part is to be assembled. Providing a model of the first and the second aircraft parts in their assembled position, the model of the second aircraft part comprising machining allowances in its coupling surface. Digitalizing the receptor surface of the first aircraft part. Positioning the digitalization in the computer model in the assembled position such that the digitalization of the receptor surface intersects the coupling surface of the second aircraft part. Obtaining a model of the second part in which the coupling surface fits the digitalized receptor surface. Mechanizing the second aircraft part.

  • Patent number: 10106376
    Abstract: In the field of hoisting and controlling hoisted loads, a hoisting device for hoisting a load includes a support beam, two load carrying units, structured to be slid along the support beam and being structured to hold the load, at least one counterweight structured to be slid along the support beam, at least one sensor capable of measuring the weight force held by the load carrying units, a first driving unit structured to slide the load carrying units, a second driving unit structured to slide the counterweight, a third driving unit structured to hoist the load, a hooking point structured to be hooked from a crane, and a processing unit structured to receive the information produced by the sensor and structured to operate the first driving unit, the second driving unit and the third driving unit.

  • Publication number: 20170088206
    Abstract: An automaton system (10) adapted for moving on a surface (S) including: movement means (1) for moving the automaton system on said surface, and actuation means (2) attached to the movement means (1) adapted for acting on the surface, wherein the movement means (1) are adapted for being supported on the surface at a fixed height (h), and in that the actuation means (2) are attached to the movement means (1) by means of an adaptation structure (3), such that the adaptation structure (3) allows the actuation means (2) to act on the surface (S) perpendicular to the tangent of the surface (S) at a point of actuation (A).
