Against the backdrop of the financing boom in the embodied data market, robot vision technology has ushered in new development opportunities. DaoAI 3D robot vision product of WeLinkirt brings an efficient solution to the fastener tightening process in the automotive/parts industry.
User Scenario: On the production line of a leading automotive parts supplier, it is responsible for the assembly of automotive engine blocks. In this process, multiple fasteners on the engine block need to be tightened. The detection objects are bolts and nuts of various specifications. The tightening quality of these fasteners directly affects the performance and safety of the engine, so the accuracy and stability of the tightening process are highly required.
Pain Points: The financing boom in the embodied data market has promoted the rapid development of robot vision technology. However, the supplier still faces many difficulties in the fastener tightening link. Traditional tightening operations rely on manual labor, which is not only inefficient but also prone to missed detections and false alarms. According to statistics, the missed detection rate of manual operation is as high as 3%, and the false alarm rate also reaches 5%. As a result, a large number of products need to be re-inspected, increasing production costs and time. In addition, with the continuous update of product models, the long change-over time is also a prominent problem. Each change-over takes 30 minutes, seriously affecting production efficiency. At the same time, in the current trend of intelligent manufacturing, meeting compliance requirements has become increasingly important for suppliers.
Technical Principle
DaoAI 3D robot vision uses a self-developed 3D camera combined with an advanced 6D pose estimation algorithm to accurately obtain the three-dimensional spatial information of fasteners. Its imaging principle is based on structured light technology. By projecting a specific structured light pattern onto the target object and using the camera to capture the reflected light, the three-dimensional morphology of the object is reconstructed. In terms of hardware, the 3D camera has high resolution and high precision, which can capture tiny detail changes. This technology is effective because it can accurately identify the position and posture of fasteners in a complex industrial environment, providing accurate guidance for subsequent tightening operations. At the same time, through the closed-loop control mode of brain-eye - body, the robot can adjust its actions in real-time according to the information fed back by the vision system, achieving sub-millimeter hand-eye coordination.
