Abstract: Techniques for flexible, on-site additive manufacturing of components or portions thereof for transport structures are disclosed. An automated assembly system for a transport structure may include a plurality of automated constructors to assemble the transport structure. In one aspect, the assembly system may span the full vertically integrated production process, from powder production to recycling. At least some of the automated constructors are able to move in an automated fashion between the station under the guidance of a control system. A first of the automated constructors may include a 3-D printer to print at least a portion of a component and to transfer the component to a second one of the automated constructors for installation during the assembly of the transport structure. The automated constructors may also be adapted to perform a variety of different tasks utilizing sensors for enabling machine-learning.

Abstract: An apparatus for assembling structures is provided. The apparatus includes an assembly robot and a mobile unit coupled to or integrated with the assembly robot. A controller coupled to the assembly robot and the mobile unit can selectively operate the assembly robot and the mobile unit based at least in part on an assembly being produced, such that the controller selectively operates the mobile unit when at least one of the assembly being produced and a sequence of assembly of is altered.
