Automated loading for production batches
Stable batches still require reliable orientation, part seating and separation of finished and unfinished components.

Problem / production requirements
Aluminum housings require repeatable seating without damaging machined sealing faces.
Recommended approach
The fictional cell plan uses locating pins referenced to the casting datum, replaceable support pads and a dedicated gripper for the housing. The proposed sequence checks seating before the machine-ready signal and keeps sealing faces away from the transfer contact points.
Technical considerations
Trials would include casting variation, residual chips on supports and a deliberately misoriented blank. Handling payload includes the gripper, not only the housing.
Evaluation / acceptance criteria
Review the seating checks and inspect sealing-face damage after repeated transfers. The demo records an evaluation plan, not a verified cycle-time or scrap reduction.
