Abstract
A personal computer (PC) was chosen to control an automatic riveter with a 5-axis positioner.
The reason for selecting a PC was to obtain an intelligent and flexible system to optimize operation, programming and maintenance of the equipment.
Integration of a computer enables the human to use his imagination, to adjust to particular circumstances, and to get the most from the machine.
