Background

Screwdriving is one of the most frequent assembly steps in electronics, appliances, and automotive production. Over-tightening can strip threads, under-tightening can loosen joints, and handheld screwdriving often causes missed screws and wrist strain.

Industry Pain Points

Torque Control, Strain, and Traceability

Manual torque control depends on feel and can cause over-tightening, under-tightening, or missed screws.
Long handheld screwdriver use can cause wrist and shoulder strain.
Advanced applications need torque monitoring and traceable data.

Why UFACTORY Cobots

Cost and ROI 01

Cost and ROI

Competitive hardware cost gives small and midsize manufacturers and integrators clear advantages in total procurement, integration, and project payback.

Plug-and-Play Setup 02

Plug-and-Play Setup

The ISO flange and standard I/O simplify integration of electric screwdrivers, feeders, and automatic screwdriving end effectors.

Open Development 03

Open Development

ROS/ROS2 packages and Python/C++ SDKs help integrators build process-specific screwdriving logic and secondary integration.

High-Precision Positioning 04

High-Precision Positioning

±0.02 mm repeatability helps align each bit, screw, and screw hole, reducing thread stripping, floating screws, and missed screws.

Screwdriving Consistency 05

Screwdriving Consistency

Stable robot motion and rhythm reduce manual torque variation; optional force/torque sensing can support higher torque control and traceability.

Vision Integration 06

Vision Integration

The UFACTORY 850 connects to 2D/3D vision for workpiece and screw-hole localization on flexible lines with position variation.

Flexible Changeover 07

Flexible Changeover

Lightweight construction and simple programming support quick station transfer, product changeover, and varied screwdriving tasks.

Labor Value Release 08

Labor Value Release

Robots reduce repetitive handheld screwdriver work, wrist and shoulder strain, staffing pressure, and capacity bottlenecks.

UFACTORY Demo

Automated Screw Fastening

UFACTORY cobot equipped with an electric screwdriver automates repetitive screw fastening in small-part assembly. With precise positioning and repeatable motion, it helps improve production consistency, reduce operator fatigue, and support stable quality in electronics, device, and light manufacturing workflows.
