Automotive production is a complex process, involving a huge number of parts and a variety of stages. This process must be flexible and adapt to changing conditions.
Optimisation of many tasks is made possible by advanced automation and industrial robotics solutions. For example, the use of servo drives in the stamping process makes it possible to improve energy efficiency by reducing power losses and reducing downtime through functions that support predictive maintenance. The use of MELSOFT MaiLab and the MELIPC industrial computer in injection moulding, meanwhile, enables improved product quality. This is thanks to real-time control of moulding pressure or detection of moulding defects, such as position deviation or adhesion of plastic or resin to the mould.
When welding, frequency inverters, operator panels or MELSEC iQ-R controllers will be useful. The use of these solutions allows better management of welding quality by constantly monitoring the process, reducing defect rates, improving the operational index, or collecting and analysing data for preventive maintenance.
State-of-the-art industrial automation and robotics solutions support the optimisation of car production at almost every stage – from the production of motors for electric vehicles and powertrains, through welding, stamping, painting and vehicle assembly.
