Method for positioning a first component relative to a second component by a robotic arm system

Abstract

A method for positioning a first component relative to a second component by a robotic arm system, comprising: providing at least a first robot arm arranged to hold and move a first component relative to a second component, wherein the robot arm is arranged to be moved coordinate-based; providing at least one laser scanning unit to detect a distance between the first component and the second component; picking up the first component by the first robot arm and moving the first component relative to the second component according to a coordinate-based calculated position; detecting a distance of the first component in its coordinate-based calculated position to the second component by the laser scanning unit; providing a position correction value based on the detected distance of the first component to the second component; moving at least one of the components to an end position based on the provided position correction value.
