Assembly cells
Advanced assembly cells that assemble and finish even the smallest components with the highest precision.
From small components to finished product
In modern manufacturing, it is often the smallest parts that demand the highest precision.
We design and build production machines specifically developed to handle and assemble small and medium-sized components in a consistent and efficient way.
At BV Teknik, we design and build assembly cells that can perform everything from simple click assemblies to advanced calibrations – always with the goal of delivering a fully finished product at the other end.
An automated workstation
When developing assembly cells, there are many possibilities. An assembly cell is essentially an automated workstation that combines multiple technologies to assemble and process components in a sequential process.
Here are some of the key elements that an assembly cell can include in your production setup:
Feeding system
This part ensures correct positioning of each component, often using vibrating bowls, linear feeders, or indexing tables.
Handling equipment
Pick-and-place units, grippers, and robotic arms move each part from one station to the next – without manual handling.
Process modules
As part of the station, a process module can be integrated to, for example, glue components together, attach lids, or dispense materials.
Control and data collection
Using logical control (PLC), all movements within the assembly cell are coordinated and logged, with data collected for optimisation purposes.
Optimise production with assembly cells
At BV Teknik, we develop assembly cells that can efficiently and consistently assemble even the smallest components. By automating the assembly process, you can increase production capacity and minimise errors along the way.
Our solutions are flexible, allowing them to be adapted to new parts or changing production requirements. Additionally, all production data is continuously recorded, enabling documentation and traceability of every single process step.
For example, we can build an assembly cell that assembles different types of boxes, calibrates small components, fills containers with material, and much more. The possibilities are virtually endless when it comes to optimising your production process.
Applications and examples
Assembly cells from BV Teknik can be tailored to almost any product. For example, we have developed solutions for:
- Jewellery boxes: Automated assembly of exclusive jewellery boxes where many small parts must be handled delicately and precisely.
- Measuring boxes: Complex assembly of measuring devices and instruments with high precision, ensuring every component fits and functions correctly.
- Components: Calibration and assembly of small parts where the assembly cell both joins and accurately calibrates each item to meet specifications.
- Filling and dosing: Integrated dosing and assembly of filling materials as part of the overall process – managing both mechanical assembly and precise material dosing.
These examples illustrate the versatility of our assembly cells. We can automate almost any process – from fine mechanical work to larger, more robust assembly operations.
How an assembly cell works
Our assembly cells typically combine robotic technology, fixtures, and sensors into one integrated solution.
The process works much like “the pen method” – where all components are assembled step by step in the correct order, just as a pen is assembled with a spring, casing, and cartridge.
An industrial robot or special-purpose machine places each part precisely, while vision systems and measuring equipment verify that everything is positioned correctly.
The result is a fully automated assembly process where raw components go in and finished products come out.
Solutions tailored to your needs
No two companies are the same – and neither are our solutions. We develop customised assembly cells in close collaboration with you. From the earliest concept stage, we provide advice and sparring on how the solution can be built, why it creates value, and when it can be implemented.
We always welcome a good challenge – in fact, we prefer developing something we haven’t built before.
If you need a machine that can assemble your unique product, we are ready to design and build it.
With more than 40 years of experience building special-purpose machines, BV Teknik brings together all necessary competencies under one roof: mechanical design, software programming, electrical engineering, toolmaking, and more. Our team of designers, programmers, electricians, toolmakers, and metalworkers work together as one unit to design, build, and test your new assembly cell.
You’ll have a dedicated contact person throughout the entire process, keeping you informed from start to finish. Are you ready to optimise your assembly process?
