Wisk Aero

This team is collaborating with Wisk Aero, an aerospace manufacturer in Mountain View, CA, to develop an automated assembly line for battery packs powering their Generation 6 eVTOL aircraft. The team focuses on automating the stacking and installation of battery cells, a process that currently requires manual loading. The solution involves a SCARA robot with…

Sorting battery cells based on performance data can be time-consuming and prone to human error. This project addresses that challenge by working with Wisk Aero to develop an automated sorting system. The system uses vision-based scanning to read identifiers and evaluate cell data, then directs sorting through a programmable logic controller and robotic system. A…
