FUURAA thesis
Assembly reliability is an interaction between part design, presentation, sensing, compliance and recovery—not a single dexterity score.
Engineering map
Turn the title into engineering objects that can be observed, measured and reviewed.
Each layer states the boundary to establish and the evidence needed for the next decision.
Contact task
Define search, alignment, force, torque, compliance, seating and verification conditions.
Error proofing
Detect wrong part, wrong orientation, partial insertion, cross-threading, damage and latent assembly defects.
Verification questions
Write the questions first, then decide whether a demo, test, pilot or operating record can answer them.
Each question needs an object, conditions, denominator, threshold and accountable decision owner.
- 01
What tolerance stack and surface condition were tested?
- 02
Can the system distinguish resistance from a correct seat?
- 03
How are damaged or ambiguous parts rejected?
- 04
What is the recovery path after a failed insertion?
Evidence to preserve
Enable the next reader to reconstruct conditions, results, failures and the decision.
A conclusion alone loses reviewability; raw records, configuration and exclusions matter too.
- 01
Evidence package 1
Part-variation matrix with accepted and rejected outcomes
- 02
Evidence package 2
Force, torque, pose and seating trace for each attempt
- 03
Evidence package 3
Failure-mode and damage record including recovery action
Scope boundary
State what this evidence still cannot be generalised to.
- 01
Success on curated parts does not establish performance on supplier variation, wear, contamination or replenishment errors.
- 02
This is an engineering reading and decision framework; it does not replace application-specific risk assessment, conformity work, procurement acceptance or professional advice.
