Double-Sheet Detection Solution: Application Sharing in Automotive Parts Production Lines

I. Project Background

The customer is an enterprise engaged in the manufacturing of automotive parts, which has put forward the demand for cost reduction and efficiency improvement. To enhance production efficiency and cut operational costs, the customer decided to upgrade and transform its existing parts production line. It aims to find high-performance domestic brands with competitive prices to replace the current imported equipment, thereby effectively controlling costs while ensuring production quality. Against this backdrop, the customer's project team contacted our company to seek a tailored solution.

II. Customer Pain Points & Working Conditions

High Equipment Costs

The existing production line of the customer adopts imported double-sheet detection sensors, which entail high procurement costs, long lead times and a lack of after-sales service.

Material Characteristics

The production line mainly processes steel materials, with plans to expand to aluminum alloy materials in the future. The material dimensions are 1.6m × 0.8m and the thickness is 1.5mm.

Production Cycle Requirements

The customer has stringent production cycle requirements, which demand the completion of 12 parts production per minute.

III. Solution

To help the customer address the pain points and improve the automation level of the production line, we proposed a comprehensive solution focusing on the introduction of a high-performance double-sheet detection system to ensure efficient and stable production.

Equipment Configuration

Double-Sheet Detection Sensor Model: MDSC-9000S

Sensor Quantity: 2 units (cooperating with the robotic arm to perform simultaneous single-and-double-sheet detection on 2 sheets)

Installation Method: The sensors are installed on both sides of the robotic arm respectively

Functional Design

One-to-Two Design: The MDSC-9000S series double-sheet detection sensor supports simultaneous detection of 2 sheets to improve efficiency. It can also conduct comprehensive monitoring of different positions on a single sheet to reduce the risk of missed detection.

High Precision & Anti-Interference Capability: The MDSC-9000S double-sheet sensor adopts an advanced double-sheet detection algorithm, featuring excellent anti-interference processing capability. It eliminates the impact of external interference factors on detection results and delivers more stable detection performance. When an abnormal condition is detected, the system will immediately trigger an alarm and initiate the corresponding automated handling procedures.

Wide Compatibility: The MDSC-9000S series double-sheet detection sensor can identify a variety of materials, including magnetic and non-magnetic materials, which meets the customer's future production line expansion needs.

Intelligent Communication Interface: The MDSC-9000S double-sheet detector supports multiple communication protocols such as Profinet and RS-485. It can seamlessly integrate with the customer's existing production management system, realizing real-time data transmission and analysis to optimize the production process.

IV. Customer Benefits

Through this production line transformation, the customer has achieved the following benefits:

Cost Reduction

Replacing imported equipment with cost-effective domestic MDSC-9000S single-and-double-sheet sensors has significantly lowered equipment procurement and maintenance costs, improving the return on investment.

Improved Quality Stability

The newly-introduced double-sheet detection system ensures the production quality of components, reduces the generation of defective products, and enhances overall production efficiency.

Prompt Technical Support

Close cooperation with the domestic brand enables the customer to obtain timely technical support and services, shortens equipment downtime, and further improves production line operational efficiency.

The transformation project of the automotive parts production line has successfully realized the transition from high-cost imported equipment to cost-effective domestic equipment, ensuring production continuity and stability. This project not only strengthens the customer's market competitiveness but also lays a solid foundation for its future development. If you need a similar solution, please feel free to contact Atonm.
