Abstract:
A table is provided to assist in the manufacture of building structures such as walls and the like, where the walls comprise a plurality of studs extending between top and bottom members. The table comprises a support surface for supporting the top and bottom members of the wall. The table includes grasping means to grasp the building structure and move it along the support surface. A computer-operated controller controls motors to locate the top and bottom framing members as desired along the table and to locate the top and bottom framing members at desired locations adjacent assembly stations. The assembly stations are used to attach a stud to each of the top and bottom members. The assembly stations are mounted on tracks and the location of the assembly stations along the track is controlled by a servo motor under control from the controller. The assembly stations may move transverse to the top and bottom framing members. The assembly stations are also movable in a vertical plane so as to be movable below the support plane of the table and to be movable to a plane to form connections. The assembly stations are also pivotable about a vertical axis.
