Abstract:
A speaker and like manufactured item manufacturing system, apparatus and method for aligning speaker components regardless of feature size to a common centering datum for placement. A speaker motor assembly may be aligned based on datum of a basket/washer subassembly, wherein remaining components are coupled, aligned and adhered according to the same datum, thus increasing concentricity, alignment, and orthogonality among components and installations. Speaker suspension components may likewise be coupled using the same datum. Specialized alignment mechanisms, such as a centering collet and a mechanical gripper, may be also be provided to align speaker components for placement and adhesion, and adhesives may be robotically controlled based on the aforementioned datum.

Claim (Index 49):
A method for forming a plurality of assemblies each having component concentricity tolerances about an assembly center axis in the range of 0-250 um, comprising:\n placing a first concentric component of each of the plurality of assemblies on a fixture configured to secure the first concentric component; actively mechanically determining a center for the first concentric component; uploading data indicative of the determined center to a first memory device associated with a processor; placing and coupling a plurality of secondary concentric components, wherein each of the secondary concentric components is robotically aligned in relation to the uploaded, determined center data during its respective placement.
