Patent ID: 8185238

Claim:
A system for carrying out an automatic drilling/riveting process for aeronautical assembly pieces, said system comprising: a robot governed by a numerical control device, the numerical control device comprising data information configured to carry out the drilling/riveting process of at least one piece; wherein the system is configured so as to enable an operator to change the drilling/riveting process during the drilling/riveting process; a data input module configured to enable data input by the operator; a converter module which accesses the numerical control device; a piece checking module which detects a piece from the at least one piece from the data input by the operator and sends the detected piece to the converter module; a governing and graphic representation module connected to the data input module and to a machine language generation module; a transmitter module connected to the numerical control device and to the machine language generation module; wherein the converter module is configured to retrieve from the numerical control device the data information of the detected piece for the drilling/riveting process to be carried out on the detected piece, the information being sent to the governing and graphic representation module with a previous conversion of the information into a legibility format by the governing and graphic representation module; the governing and graphic representation module is configured to transform the information received into geometric information for the graphic representation of the detected piece on a screen together with the distribution of the drilling/riveting process to be carried out on the detected piece and also the parameters of each drilling/riveting; and the numerical control device is configured to save modifications from the governing and graphic representation module via the transmitter module, the modifications being made by an operator according to the information displayed on the screen.
