The basic prerequisite for trouble-free assembly of moving structures is that the assembled structure has as many degrees of freedom as its function requires. In practice, we often encounter cases of statically overdetermined pairs. Designers often use them to increase the rigidity of products. This article describes a way to mitigate the consequences of problematic assembly in sliding pairs, which are often statically overdetermined. The article also addresses an important problem in assembly, which is repeated assembly accuracy, especially when designing assembly lines and automated and robotic systems.
