Last updated:
Abstract:
A system for installing a solar panel may include an end of arm assembly tool and a linear guide assembly coupled to the end of arm assembly tool. The end of arm assembly tool includes a frame and plurality of attachment devices, such as suction cups, coupled to the frame. The linear guide assembly includes a linearly moveable clamping tool including an engagement member configured to engage a clamp assembly slidably coupled to an installation structure, and a force torque transducer configured to move the clamping tool along the installation structure. A controller configured to control the force torque transducer and the plurality of attachment devices. The end of arm assembly tool is coupled to a robotic arm and is part of an assembly robot that includes autonomous and non-autonomous vehicles. The various components can be operated by a control system based on operation instructions received from a neural network.
