Problem
Aerospace manufacturing and maintenance processes, particularly drilling, are prone to defects due to their complexity and reliance on manual labor. These manual processes also present ergonomic challenges for operators, potentially shortening their careers and exacerbating existing labor shortages. The lack of real-time data logging and smart manufacturing techniques further hinders management's ability to optimize production and reduce costs.
Solution
Wilder Systems offers modular, autonomous robotic solutions designed to automate complex drilling processes in aerospace manufacturing and maintenance. These robots reduce labor time by at least 50% while freeing up human operators to focus on higher-value tasks. The robotic systems improve operator ergonomics by minimizing repetitive motion injuries and integrate seamlessly into existing floor plans and jigs without requiring modifications. Wilder Systems' technology also incorporates network-enabled traceability, allowing for continuous process data tracking and enabling data-driven improvements in manufacturing efficiency and quality.
