Tele-assembly System for final assembly of the fusion ignition target

This paper presents a novel way for final assembly of the fusion ignition target to avoid possible factitious interference during target assembly process and harm from target materials. Tele-assembly is adopted and a target tele-assembly system is developed in this paper. The system not only has local precision positioning unit and vacuum adsorption clamping unit but also has remote force and position monitoring units, augment reality unit and master manipulator. Structure of the target tele-assembly system, augment reality and master-slave method are discussed. Finally, experiments are carried out to verify the feasibility and effectiveness of the target tele-assembly system.
