Abstract The automotive industry is of great importance to the global economy for all jobs it generates, materials exploits, or technical and technological development drives. control cables provide essential functions any car, such as opening doors windows, activating handbrake accelerator. process assembling involves numerous steps manufacture various components, e.g., spiral, inner outer coating, spiral terminal, terminals. This work deals with injection cable There a need separate set into its constituent parts, namely terminals feeding system (gate), which carried out manually, potentially leading health problems, tendonitis. paper presents an automated pneumatic separation from system. novel addresses significant gap in automation Zamak terminal by handling seven different types under strict spatial limitations. solution resulted 39% reduction production time, enhancing efficiency. Moreover, adopting Design Science Research (DSR) methodology, contributes not only industrial practice but also theoretical understanding process. approach automating repetitive ergonomically challenging task represents step forward field manufacturing technology that can be extended other fabrication processes, improvements competitiveness.
