Enhance efficiency with an advanced Real-Time Location System
Real-Time Tracking for Seat Assembly
Enhance your manufacturing process with advanced technology, ensuring improved operator safety, enhanced ergonomics, reduced recall risk, and increased efficiency.
Eliminate Errors with Real-Time Tracking
Precision and efficiency are critical in seat assembly, yet manufacturers face ongoing challenges. Complex assembly sequences, frequent tool changes, and strict quality requirements leave no room for error. Manual tracking slows production and increases the risk of misalignment, rework, or even safety issues. A Real-Time Location System (RTLS) transforms the process by providing precise tracking of tools, components, and assembly actions—ensuring accuracy, reducing errors, and optimizing production efficiency.
Typical customer challenges
Complexity of assembly and quality control
Slow tool changes and machine setup can reduce efficiency on car seat assembly lines, where multiple tools and machines are used. Inefficient transitions between tools affect production flow and can significantly impact both efficiency and profitability.
Tool changeovers and calibration
The complexity of assembling numerous screws, clips, and connectors increases the risk of errors and rejects. Manual inspection of each assembly seat for errors and quality issues is time-consuming and requires additional resources, which can reduce overall profitability.
Screw placement and small distances
Accurate placement of airbag screws at specific distances, such as 10mm, is critical in car seat assembly. Errors or inadequate guidance can result in screws being incorrectly positioned or missed, jeopardizing the seat's safety features and structural integrity.
