Abstract

An automated assembly system for two or more rotary components of a gas turbine engine includes a stacking station (26) at which the two or more rotary components are stacked along a stacking axis (14) and a press system selectably movable between a retracted position spaced apart from the stacking axis (14) and a press position at the stacking axis (14). The press system is configured to exert a downward force on the two or more rotary components at the stacking station (26) to engage a first rotary component of the two or more rotary components to a second rotary component of the two or more rotary components. A robot (30) is configured to sequentially stack the two or more rotary components along the stacking axis (14).
