Abstract

A spool (10) including a core (12) and end disks (18, 24) retained by tabs (16, 22) is assembled by sliding each end disk over the core into proximity with its associated tabs, contacting the end disk with at least a single point tool (106; 228-252) and rotating the tool to snap the disks past the tabs one by one. A transducer assembly (142-160) measures axial force applied to the core to detect successful installation of each end disk.
