Abstract:
A method and system are provided to position and drill an opening for a fastener through one or more workpieces. In the context of a method, a peen mark is formed on a workpiece at a location at which the opening is to be drilled. The method also includes utilizing a robotic vision system to identify the peen mark on the workpiece and thereafter drilling the opening configured to receive the fastener at the location designated by the peen mark. In the context of a system, the system includes a dot peen marking system configured to form a peen mark on a workpiece at a location at which the opening is to be drilled. The system also includes a robot comprising a vision system configured to identify the peen mark on the workpiece and a drilling machine configured to drill the opening at the location designated by the peen mark.

Claim (Index 8):
A method of positioning and drilling an opening configured to receive a fastener, the method comprising:\n forming a peen mark on a workpiece at a predefined orientation and at a location at which the opening is to be drilled, wherein the predefined orientation of the peen mark is defined by an predefined angle between a central axis of the peen mark and a surface in which the opening is to be drilled; identifying the peen mark on the workpiece and the predefined orientation of the peen mark; and drilling the opening configured to receive the fastener at the predefined orientation and at the location designated by the peen mark.
