Challenge
Automotive Production: Precision at Scale with Rapid Model Changes
Automotive manufacturing innovation requires adaptable automation that validates complex assemblies and quickly adjusts to new models without compromising quality. Manufacturers need partners who understand that a single defective part can ruin reputations and cause costly recalls. The challenge is to develop intelligent systems that ensure zero defects and keep pace with industry progress.
Solution
Automotive Automation: From Component to Final Assembly
We offer complete vehicle solutions, from injector assembly to powertrain testing and chassis systems, ensuring ride quality and safety. Industry 4.0 integration enables full component traceability, while AR-assisted inspection accelerates issue detection and resolution. Our systems meet top quality standards, adapt to model changes, and scale with production needs.
Capabilities
Automotive Assembly & Testing
Structural Assembly
Auto Glass Cells
Our assembly cells use precision robotics and adhesive systems to consistently install windshields and side lights, adapting to varying glass shapes while meeting cycle-time goals. Features include automated part handling, adhesive dispensing with bead verification, integrated quality checks, and quick-change multi-model flexibility.
Structural Components
Pillar Assembly
Automated pillar assembly systems join key structural components that ensure vehicle rigidity. They accurately align and weld A-, B-, and C-pillars, supporting projection welding, resistance welding, and fastener integration, as well as full cell automation with multi-robot coordination. Features include quick fixture changeover for various platforms and real-time alignment and weld monitoring.
Floor Plan & Tunnel
Complex body-in-white floor plan and tunnel assemblies require precise stamping and weld placement. Our advanced multi-robot systems ensure accurate underbody dimensions.
Platform Features:
- Advanced fixturing with quick-change capability
- Accommodation for different wheelbases and architectures
- Tight tolerance maintenance for downstream quality
Joining Systems
Projection Nut Welding
Projection nut welding systems use electrical resistance to weld threaded nuts or studs to sheet metal rapidly, enabling strong joints for bolted assembly of panels and parts. They offer adaptive current control, real-time quality monitoring, automatic nut feeding, and operate at millisecond cycle times.
Blank Welding
Before forming, pre-cut metal sheets of various thicknesses and grades are welded into tailored blanks for specific components. Laser and resistance welding systems produce precise seams for efficient stamping.
Process Features:
- Material handling and alignment verification
- Weld quality monitoring and traceability
- Support for lightweighting strategies using high-strength steel
Component Assembly
Radiator Assembly Systems
Radiator assembly requires precise alignment of connections and careful handling of cooling fins. Automated and semi-automated systems assemble heat exchangers and conduct integrated leak testing on every unit. Processes include core assembly, tank and bracket installation, and end-of-line testing, with full traceability for all components.
Plastics & Polymer Applications
Modern vehicles rely on engineered plastics for everything from intake manifolds to interior trim. Our assembly solutions for polymer components address the unique challenges of plastic materials while ensuring quality and cosmetic integrity.
Joining Technologies
- Ultrasonic welding for hermetic seals
- Heat staking for permanent joints
- Snap-fit assembly with force monitoring
- Static management and cosmetic damage prevention
- Non-destructive assembly validation
Operator-Assisted Solutions
Manual Tooling Solutions
Not every operation requires full automation. Our manual tooling solutions provide operators with ergonomic workstations, poke-yoke fixtures, and powered assembly tools that ensure quality while maintaining flexibility.
Workstation Features
- Ergonomic design for operator comfort
- Poke-yoke fixtures for error prevention
- Integrated torque verification tools
- Vision-guided assembly assistance
- Real-time process monitoring and data capture
- Traceability and continuous improvement integration
Testing & Validation
NVH Test Machine
Noise, vibration, and harshness testing validates that engines, transmissions, and driveline assemblies meet acoustic and dynamic performance specifications. Our NVH test equipment uses advanced sensors and signature analysis to detect production defects and performance issues.
Testing Capabilities
- Advanced linear and torsional sensors
- Dynamic torque measurement systems
- Detection of nicked gears, bearing defects, and imbalance
- Cold testing with controlled measurement conditions
- Hot testing under full operating parameters
- Frequency domain analysis with automated pass/fail decisions
Accumulation & Mass Spectrometer
Molecular-level leak detection is critical for fuel systems, HVAC components, and sealed assemblies. Our accumulation and mass spectrometer testing equipment detects helium tracer gas at concentrations measured in parts per million, validating hermetic seals that protect sensitive components.
