Steering wheel assembly machine and integrated tester

While the final product (steering wheel) is assembled, a mechanic and electric test is being performed. The application also integrates with the ERP at the customer's site providing traceability information.

The tests to be performed are:

• electrical contacts, continuity
• horn
• color,
• product type,
• element presence check
• screw torque check

A barcode reader is veryfing product batch and sequence. The PanelPC is generating the production orders and ensuring product traceability

Similar machines were installed in other locations:

• TRW Timisoara (Romania)
• Dalphi Metal (Portugal)
