The application of the Automatic Drilling/Riveting (ADR) System realizes automation of the wing panel riveting assembly. However, a major obstacle to the ADR of wing assembly in the past has been an inability to rapidly reduce locating deviation that usually existed between the upper-riveting head and actual locating points. This case largely influences actual production. To increasing locating accuracy and processing efficiency, a new method for errors analysis and rapid correction was proposed. Firstly, by analyzing the process flow of ADR, the resources and causes of errors were obtained from the analyzed results. Secondly, defined locating points in 3D model, then offset the points to modify the deviation between locating points in 3D numerical modeling and actual locating points in located and clamped wing panels. The modified data is from site measuring. Thirdly, software CATIA secondary development software CAA (Component Application Architecture) was applied to develop Rapid Error Correction Module in off-line programming. The locating points were obtained by the Agent technology and the batch definition was implemented on the visual interactive definition platform. The locating points were corrected by the AUTOMATION interface and the offset based on the template document was completed, the final locating points were determined by the linear programming. Finally, implementation on wing panel riveting assembly was introduced, and the results demonstrated the functionality of the method.
