Flexible Drilling Head [FDH] 5 Axis Crawling Drilling and Riveting Machine The FDH is a 5 interpolated axis drilling machine with modular design for easy system customization. Its principle is to ‘walk’ over the aircraft fuselage, holding on place by means of a set of vacuum cups. Once the FDH ‘walks’ to position, gets locked with the vacuum cups and is ready to perform the drilling/riveting operation. After drilling/riveting at the current area, the FDH walks one more step, by releasing the vacuum at half of the cups and moving them one step ahead, where it will lock them on place again getting...
