MECA 4.0 – AIRBUS Helicopters

Sector Aeronautical

Our project with Airbus Helicopters focuses on a digitally connected modular assembly line. The key to our success lies in the flexibility and modularity of the workstations, together with the implementation of Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) (AMRs) for an agile production flow.

This first-of-its-kind digital implementation at Airbus ensures first-class traceability and the ability to adjust production according to changing needs. Our customers have noticed that this tool improves safety, ensuring that production cycles are met and enabling risk anticipation.

Operators also benefit, as they experience significantly improved working conditions and greater ergonomic comfort at their workstations. Our stations allow effortless movement of heavy parts in any direction, allowing operators to fully concentrate on their higher value-added tasks.

This MECA 4.0 project with Airbus Helicopters is an outstanding example of how technology and innovation can transform production in the aerospace industry, improving safety and efficiency at work. We are proud to be part of this evolution in production at Airbus Helicopters.

Challenge to be solved

This project with Airbus Helicopters has the challenge of raising manufacturing quality, while creating a lean, flexible, ergonomic, and highly connected production line. The result is a significant improvement in quality, more efficient production, and rapid adaptation to changing market needs.

Proposed solution

Our solution relies on Autonomous Mobile Robot (AMR) based logistics for efficient material flow.

In addition, we have developed flexible workstations with interchangeable interfaces, enabling rapid adaptation to different product models. Full connectivity between all elements used provides real-time information, improving process visibility.

Our tools and stations are designed with operator ergonomics and flexibility in mind, optimising efficiency, and comfort in every task. This holistic approach ensures a high quality and efficient production process.
