Project Profile:
•Denver based startup firm that developed smart window technology in an R&D environment (thin film laminate)
•At the time of engagement, product was produced manually, at the rate 4 man-hours per 1ft2
•Maximum production size was 16x24”
Objectives:
•Develop an approach to automate the production process
•Continuous operation with max production rate of 70ft2/min
•Maximum panel size of 78x78”
•Integration of QC station
•Minimal operator involvement
•Process development and validation through small-scale test rig
•Machine specification development
•Specification of vendor supplied products
•Design, optimization of ~30 process cells
•Generation of complete engineering package (3D, 2D files, BOM’s, PL, assembly & calibration documents, detailed machine spec)
