Abstract

Systems and methods are provided for applying fasteners to a structure. One embodiment is a method that includes disposing a first set of end effectors along a fixed inner track that follows an Inner Mold Line (IML) of a structure, disposing a second set of end effectors along a fixed outer track that follows an Outer Mold Line (OML) of the structure, aligning a first end effector at the fixed inner track with a second end effector at the fixed outer track, clamping the structure between the first end effector and the second end effector, by pressing the first end effector and the second end effector into the structure, and applying a fastener to the structure.
