Body Panel Sealing Using Vision Guided Robotics + AI
Case
Body Panel Sealing Automation
Achieving consistent quality in automotive manufacturing requires precise synchronization of complex processes. A critical step in these processes is body panel sealing, where precision in positioning and sealing accuracy are paramount to the vehicle’s durability and performance. While traditional vision systems often fall short, vision-guided robotics combined with AI enables the precise control needed to enhance sealing quality, streamline operations, and maintain production standards in high-demand environments.
Challenge
Limitations of Laser Triangulation for Sealing
Body panel sealing requires seamless coordination between robotic systems and scanning technology. Traditional laser triangulation methods often struggle to meet these demands due to limited scanning coverage and positioning constraints. These limitations can lead to alignment errors, missed sealing points, and production slowdowns, posing significant risks to quality control and operational efficiency in high-paced automotive manufacturing environments.
Solution
Precision Body Panel Sealing with VGR + AI
SolMotion, Solomon’s vision-guided robotics software, integrates AI and 3D vision technology to provide precise body panel sealing for automotive manufacturers. By analyzing 3D point cloud data, SolMotion accurately identifies various car models on the production line and adjusts sealing paths in real-time to accommodate any shifts in part alignment or orientation. This adaptability ensures that sealing quality is maintained even with fluctuations in part positioning.
The system’s ability to adapt to changing conditions allows multi-robot setups to work in sync, delivering consistent, high-quality sealing across production lines. SolMotion not only improves sealing precision but also boosts production efficiency by reducing the risk of alignment errors, missed sealing points, and slowdowns that can affect production timelines.
