Abstract
A manufacturing structure 10 comprises a building having floors 16, walls 12 and roof 14, one of the walls constituting a base 32 for a machine tool comprising an arm 30 attached to the base, the other end 34 mounting a tool bit 36 e.g. a drill or gripping means, incorporating a first receiver 20a, a second receiver 20b being mounted on the workpiece 40, a space positioning system using the receivers to allow automatic positioning of the tool bit by a computer system 24. The space positioning system may use GPS or radio signals and may have at least three transmitters 18 and may be augmented by a laser positioning system. The arm may be a flexible robot arm. There may be other machine tools also automatically controlled and fixed to tracks or to the floor. A platform may be provided for factory personnel. The structure may be used for any manufacturing process such as drilling, milling, applying carbon fibre etc and may provide a concept factory, manufacturing one-off large items or components e.g. wings for the energy, nuclear, aerospace, marine, transport or defense sectors.
