This project describes the process and the result of automating a moment in the production of a wave power generator. The project goal is to improve a stacking tool, as well as simulating this process to be able to use it in the production of stator valleys. The project started with an investigation and a study of the tool, which has been used in laboratory work at Angstrom Laboratory at Uppsala University. It was necessary to study even the robot, which was used in the automating. The project started by constructing a prototype based on the design of the old tool. The tool became updated with suction cups and electromagnets. The first task which resulted an advantage of the new prototype was to make the sheets movement more reliable. The disadvantage is that it can only take one sheet at a time which prolongs the stacking time. The second task was to simulate the stackning momentum. To simulate the entire process of the project, a robot cell model was created in the "ABB-Robotstudio" program. The aim was to develop a specific simulation moment based on a previous research project (Robotized Stacking of the Uppsala University Wave Energy Converter Generator Stator) by Erik Hultman and Marcus Linder at Uppsala University. The results of the tests showed that the instrument worked as it supposed to do and steering of the stator’s sheets movement was secure.
