Proved Quality by Online Monitoring and Closed-Loop Control of Pin Insertion

Abstract

To provide high quality in production and assembly processes need to be controlled. This paper analyzes the effect and necessity of online monitoring and closed-loop control of pin insertion. In this investigation pin insertion is an assembly process wherein metallic pins are pressed into polymer structures. The investigations described in this paper are made at the Robert Bosch GmbH and according to their requirements towards production standards, quality and traceability.
