DTS 01 | Drilling Targeting Systems

DTS 01 | Drilling Targeting Systems is a drilling and location targeting system that aims to solve aerospace assembly problems – specifically the fuselage and ribs connection. DTS 01 speeds up the workflow and reduces the need for an extremely-skilled operator. It enhances the accuracy rate in the assembly process. The product consists of two major units: the modular targeting unit and the drilling unit. The targeting unit uses ultrasonic technology to detect the location of holes on the exterior fuselage. The drilling unit locks onto the target and DTS 01 automatically drills the final hole without damaging the surface. Red Dot Award: Design Concept | Concept | Industry & Tools
