Storyboard
What the video shows
The storyboard shows a robot loading printed circuit boards into test equipment using a custom end effector and guided placement.
-
Step 1
Prepare the workcell, fixture, part, or target surface shown in the storyboard frames.
-
Step 2
Locate and align the robot or tool for pcb loading.
-
Step 3
Execute the task with vision guidance and monitored robot motion.
-
Step 4
Confirm the placement, contact path, inspection result, or finished surface before repeating the cycle.
Challenge
Why this task is difficult
Robotic PCB Loading requires repeatable execution in electronics assembly and testing, where alignment, controlled contact, and process consistency can be difficult to maintain manually.

Deployment layer
How Robita AI helps
Robita AI turns this kind of Flexiv demonstration into a deployment plan: we assess the manual workflow, define the tooling and fixture assumptions, validate the robot capability, and map the pilot path from first test to production rollout. For electronics assembly and testing applications, that means connecting the visible robot motion to practical questions like cycle time, safety, operator handoff, data capture, and integration with the existing workstation.
Complexity reduction
How Flexiv force control reduces complexity
Even when this video is not primarily a force-control demo, Flexiv's force-sensitive platform matters because many real deployments eventually involve contact, tolerance stack-up, or operator-safe interaction. Robita evaluates where force feedback can simplify tooling, reduce fixture rigidity, and make the workflow more tolerant of normal production variation.
