Equipment for Marking Automobile Parts

Industry: Automotive / Machine Tools
Process: Marking

Parts are measured and checked by product type using a camera before the marking process.

This data is sent to the XSEL controller using serial communication. The XSEL controller corrects the character size and angle, then moves the pen attached to the Cartesian robot to mark the alphanumeric characters.

This process was previously done by hand, but automating had the following effects.

  • The cost of errors that happened when done by hand were eliminated.
  • Labor costs were reduced.
  • It became possible to fulfill the automation requests by car manufacturers.
