Fastening and gluing of chassis and door moldings.

×

1 / Need identified

Installation developed for fastening moldings to chassis and doors of all combustion and electric models.

The operator pre-positions the moldings with RFID templates, and two robots apply controlled pressure to correctly clip all the moldings to the chassis and doors.

2 / Solution

CALIBRATION POST
A calibration post for each Robot to automatically verify the position of the roller and its condition.

MOLDING CLAW
The claw installs a rubber roller that fastens the moldings without leaving marks.

  • Roller revolution counter system.
  • Force cell system for pneumatic pressure adjustment.

SYNCHRONISM SYSTEM

  • Octopus dragging using a magnetic system that attaches to the octopus.
  • The robot system is synchronized with the (not always constant) advancement of the line using a belt conveyor system with an encoder located on the upper part that is fixed to the octopus that carries the chassis.

ADAPTATION TO NEW MODELS

The robots allow for better adjustment and adaptation to new molding models.

PRECISION AND CONTROL

The pressure is controlled with a load cell to guarantee and ensure clipping at each point. The force is applied with a pneumatic system with pressure adjustment.
