Perceptron Awarded Large Helix 3D Scanning Sensor Order in China
August 04 2017 - 8:30AM
Perceptron, Inc. (NASDAQ:PRCP), a leading global provider of 3D
automated metrology solutions and coordinate measuring machines,
today announced that a prestigious German automotive manufacturer
selected Perceptron gauging and robot guidance for their
manufacturing facility in China.
The project includes six stations in total: four in-line
gauging, one in-line robot guidance for form and pierce, and one
near-line closure panel gauging. All stations feature Helix
sensors, including both structure-mounted and robot-mounted, to
measure features such as threaded studs, hemmed edges and complex
holes. Perceptron’s measurement algorithms allow measurement of
non-standard hole shapes, which are increasingly used by
manufacturers to error-proof their build process.
“This project is a part of a larger vehicle program whereby a
similar platform is built at additional plants worldwide,”
commented Rick VanValkenburg, Perceptron Vice President of Global
Sales and Marketing. “Perceptron has experienced execution teams
around the globe which enables support at all of the customer’s
assembly plants. Multiple country projects are very common in the
automotive industry and Perceptron has a unique competitive
advantage with our local install and support teams.”
Perceptron’s dimensional gauging solutions provide a real-time
view of production quality, allowing customers to make rapid
adjustments and see instant results. The integrated reporting
package enables immediate insight into the manufacturing process,
turning massive amounts of data into actionable information. These
powerful reporting tools also aid in the efforts to reduce process
variation and optimize overall vehicle quality, providing more
effective troubleshooting tools and faster root cause analysis.
All stations at the manufacturing facility in China are
currently in the final stage of installation.
