The future of manufacturing: machine vision for electric motors
As the central components for the electromobility of vehicles, e-motors are the focus of the automotive industry. Machine vision plays a decisive role in fulfilling the quality requirements.
With machine vision, for example, electrostatics, battery casings or battery contacts can be precisely measured. In addition, processes such as the laser welding of hairpins or busbars can be monitored using senswork systems. In doing so, it improves product quality, reduces rejection rates, increases customer satisfaction and, at the same time, promotes electric mobility.
Monitoring the laser welding of hairpins.
ElectrostatorWhen electric motors are assembled, around 160 to 220 hairpins are welded together. With senswork's AI-based inspection system, high-resolution data from the welding points are recorded and evaluated. This is how laser welding can be automated and process quality guaranteed.
Inline measurement technology along the process chain
3D Measurementsenswork offers solutions for the entire battery cell production process. With our optical 3D measuring systems, we can measure products in real time without contact and compare them against CAD, for example, the 3D measurement of battery clusters to enclosures, battery casings and contacts.
3D CAD comparison for busbars
Busbarssenswork's 3D measuring system records the geometry of busbars in just a few seconds. Deviations in shape can automatically be detected by comparing the nominal and actual surface profiles. Correction parameters for feed and bending angle per segment are continuously and automatically determined.
Quality control when foaming battery cells
Foamsenswork has developed a process for 3D scanning of foam surfaces between battery cells. Deformations such as cavities or foam protrusion are quickly and reliably detected. This ensures that the battery foam can optimally fulfill its safety-critical function.
Efficient automation of laser welding of hairpins for electric motors with AI. 100 % inline inspection for optimal quality.
Quality control in the automated production of busbars. The 3D measuring system ZScan® reliably detects shape deviations of busbars.
