Intercooler installation with system-guided bolt release

At the site of a logistics service provider, charge air coolers are assembled in sequence and made available. moviniti assembly was introduced for the manual, system-guided assembly of the charge air coolers.

The challenge

In addition to the standard requirements for the systematic assurance of correct assembly of the charge air coolers, there was also the requirement to allow a work step to be completed only after a successful screwing process.

  • Required integration of a screwdriver with the assembly system
  • Release of the next step only upon correct screwdriving result
  • Requirement to securely and in real time receive screwdriver data
  • Risk of faulty assembly without system-guided validation
  • Need for intuitive and stable operator guidance

The solution

The release of the work step after a successful screwdriving process was achieved through the development of middleware for the automatic transfer of screwdriver values to the moviniti system.

  • Development of a special tool to receive screwdriver data via a standard protocol
  • Automatic verification of the transmitted screwdriving parameters
  • Process approval on the monitor only after a successful screwdriving process
  • Display of clear instructions and notifications at the workstation
  • Complete integration into moviniti assembly for seamless assembly guidance
  • Stable and traceable control of the entire assembly process

The result

Safe operator guidance at every assembly step
Automatic validation of all screwdriving processes
High process quality through clear release logic
Prevention of incorrect screw connections
Real-time transparency over all screwdriving and assembly data
Consistent and stable process flow without manual double checks
