Automating Clamping and Routing Inspections at the End-of-Line and Pre-Delivery Inspection

This challenge focuses on detecting clamping and routing issues in chassis assembly during the End-of-Line (EOL) and Pre-Delivery Inspection (PDI) stages. The complexity of overlapping routing paths and reliance on manual inspection make it prone to errors, impacting vehicle safety and reliability.

Challenge details:

At the End-of-Line (EOL) and Pre-Delivery Inspection (PDI) stages of chassis assembly, ensuring correct clamping and routing of components is critical for vehicle safety and reliability. However, the complexity of the chassis assembly process—particularly involving brake lines, fuel lines, electrical harnesses, and coolant hoses—makes it prone to errors. These components need to be assembled in constrained spaces, with their routing paths overlapping, leading to entanglement, stress points, or incorrect layering that may not be immediately visible.

In addition, these components (clamps, brackets, connectors etc.) are similar in dimensions and appearance, which may result in incorrect part fitment. Missing components or misrouted cables can compromise functionality and are often hard to detect without detailed inspection.

Currently, the detection of such issues relies heavily on manual inspection, which involves checking 30-40 parameters per vehicle. This process is vulnerable to human error, particularly under time constraints or when performed by less experienced personnel. The problem is compounded as the workforce is floating and may lack familiarity with specific chassis configuration.  

We are seeking solutions which can accurately and efficiently detect these defects during the End-of-Line/Pre-Delivery Inspection stage.

Condition Monitoring for Kiln Support Rollers and Gearboxes
Rewards proportional to your differentiated solution! More than one solution is expected to exist. Solution may be implemented without customization.

Rotary kilns rely on gearboxes and support rollers for efficient rotation, but high temperatures and low RPM hinder effective condition monitoring. Current ultrasonic methods are inadequate due to the harsh environment, leading to increased bearing failures and production stoppages. A robust monitoring system is needed to withstand these conditions, providing accurate data for proactive maintenance and preventing downtime. Addressing this challenge is essential for maintaining kiln efficiency and reliability in the production process.
