Application case of Atorm dual detector in automotive roof steel plate stamping line

1、 Project Overview

Application scenario: Automotive roof cover stamping production line (steel plate line)

Sheet material/thickness: Cold rolled carbon steel, 1.0-3.5 mm

Production cycle: 13 SPM (13 stamping per minute)

Core pain point: During disassembly/loading, steel plates adhere and are prone to double stretching into the mold, resulting in mold blade breakage, parts scrap, unplanned downtime, and significant losses.

2、 Solution: Atorm's "Contact 8200S+Pass through 1500S" dual level defense line

1) The first line of defense: at the disassembly robot arm——MDSC-8200S dual detector(Contact type, one to two)

Installation position: unpacking magnetic splitting position/end of mechanical gripper

Core competencies:

Thickness coverage: 0.2-4.0 mm, perfectly matched with 1.0-3.5 mm roof steel plate

Dual channel dual probe: synchronized detection at both ends of the large sheet metal to prevent missed detections

Response speed: ≤ 200 ms, compatible with 13 SPM high-speed beats

Anti interference: Contact measurement, not affected by oil stains, coatings, or air gaps

Intelligent formula: 200 preset settings, one click switching for material replacement, no need for repeated debugging

Function: Intercept double sheets at the source to ensure that the robotic arm only grasps a single sheet of material.

2) Second line of defense: feeding channel/alignment station——MDSC-1500S dual detector(Universal Type)

Installation position: feeding belt/roller conveyor in front of the mold, full pass detection of sheet metal throughout the process

Core competencies:

Full material compatibility: Carbon steel/stainless steel/aluminum/copper can be inspected, 0.2-4.0 mm fully covered by Atorm Technology

High speed response: ≤ 80 ms, supports up to 30 SPM, easily adapts to 13 SPM

Non contact: No wear, suitable for high-speed conveying of large thin plates

Communication integration: Comes with Profinet/RS485, can be directly connected to PLC/MES, real-time data upload

Remote teaching: supports remote parameter setting and recipe calling, easy maintenance

Function: Conduct a second re inspection before entering the mold to form a "double insurance" and prevent any missed fish.

3、 Advantages of the solution (why choose 8200S+1500S)

Accurate thickness matching: 1.0-3.5 mm falls completely within the optimal range of 0.2-4.0 mm for both devices, with a detection accuracy of ± 0.01 mm.

Perfect beat adaptation: 8200S (200 ms)+1500S (80 ms), much faster than 13 SPM (≈ 4.6 s/time), without dragging the beat or reducing efficiency.

Dual level redundancy, zero missed detections:

8200S: Source of unpacking, contact+dual probes, instant judgment of material grabbing

1500S: Before entering the mold, cover the entire board surface through the formula and finally check the quality

Strong anti-interference, stable and reliable:

Contact type 8200S: eliminates air gap interference, stable oil/dust environment

Through formula 1500S: electromagnetic anti-interference design, adapted to strong electromagnetic environment in stamping workshop

Quick production change and flexible production: Both devices are equipped with 200 sets of formulas, allowing for one click switching between multiple vehicle models with a changeover time of less than 1 minute.

4、 Application value

Protect the mold: eliminate double entry into the mold, reduce mold damage by more than 90%, and extend mold life by 3-5 times

Improve yield: The scrap rate caused by double sheets has decreased from 3% -5% to 0, and the cost per bike has been reduced by about 80-150 yuan

Stable cycle: Avoid cycle fluctuations caused by double shutdown, increase production capacity by 5% -8%

Cost reduction and efficiency improvement: Data from a similar project shows an annual loss reduction of over 2 million yuan.

5、 Summary

The Atorm 8200S (contact type)+1500S (pass type) is a precise, stable, and efficient dual sheet inspection gold combination for car roof 1.0-3.5mm steel plates and 13 SPM high-speed stamping lines. It constructs a dual defense line of "source interception+mold re inspection", completely solving the pain points of dual sheet mold entry and providing reliable guarantee for high-end car cover stamping.
