In the previous article, we explored how Siasun Robotics provides services to leading companies in the automotive parts industry. Today, we will continue to explore more noteworthy application cases of Siasun Robotics in this industry.
Newstar robots can not only efficiently complete tasks such as body-in-white welding, structural component stamping, fatigue testing, and seat bracket welding, but their applications in areas such as roof gluing, wheel hub handling, brake pad welding, and tire laser engraving are also becoming increasingly mature.
Automotive headliner adhesive application
Applying adhesive to automotive headliners is a precision operation that demands extremely high accuracy and consistency. Maintaining consistency in adhesive application is a significant challenge due to the varying shapes and sizes of automotive headliners. In manual operations, changes in operators make it difficult to guarantee consistency between each workpiece.
Meanwhile, high labor costs, excessive glue waste, and the toxicity and volatility of transfer primers, which pose health risks with prolonged exposure, are also key concerns for businesses.

Car wheel hub moving
The main challenges in automated integrated car wheel hub handling operations lie in improving operational precision, work efficiency, and the effectiveness of handling protection.
Automobile wheel hubs are typically heavy and come in various sizes, requiring handling equipment with sufficient load-bearing capacity and adaptability to safely and effectively handle hubs of different specifications. As precision components, wheel hubs are extremely sensitive to vibration and impact during handling, and damage to their surface or internal structure must be avoided.

Automotive brake pad welding
Welding automotive brake pads is a precise and complex process.
The welding process requires extremely high precision control; any slight deviation may lead to a decrease in brake pad performance or even failure. Automated welding equipment needs to be closely integrated with other parts of the production line, which places high demands on the compatibility and stability of software and hardware.
