Axle Line Automation :-

Line Automation

Machine Automation MES Integration

• All machine critical parameters to be • Storing of all critical parameters

displayed on HMI.
• Automated History Card
• Interlocking must be present generation

• Poka-Yoke arrangement must be there

Machine Automation & Poka-Yoke For Rear Axle Line

1. Washing Machine – 3 Phase Continuous, Stop & GO Type 4. Pinion Shim Selection :-
Cycle selection for Carrier, Housing & Child parts with special
nozzle system for Housing & Carrier Dimension checking Gauges
Auto Algorithm calculation
Data Recording – Temperature & Pressure of Machine will be Shim rack with Pick to light arrangement
recorded

Poka Yoke – If any parameter like (Temperature, Pressure, Filtration

system choke, Oil Skimmer not Working, Water Level not 5. Backlash Testing & Contact Pattern:-
maintained & PH value ) is not under specification machine will not
operate Automatic Backlash Testing Machine
Optical Contact Pattern Measurement machine

2. Press Machine – 30 T Top & Bottom Cylinder Type

6. Leak Test – OK or NOK
Bar Code Scanning – For Model/Part selection
Load selection as per model
7. Oil Flushing – Flushing Done or Not Done
Dolly & Fixture Selection
Poka-Yoke – Pick to Light for Dolly & Fixture selection
Sensor for availability of part on Machine

3. Tightening Tools – BOSCH REXORTH

Bar Code Scanning- For Tightening program selection as per

model

Printing- Printing option for torque & cycle count print model wise.

Torque Display- On HMI on operator pendant.

Poka-Yoke – Cradle Lock before tightening start.

 MES system For Rear Axle

Bar Code Scanning – At final station before painting

Following Critical parameters will be shown in History Card :-

• Washing Machine – Pressure & Temperature

• Press Machine – Load Vs Displacement Graph

• Tightening Tools – Bolt Tightening Cycle complete with Torque value

• Pinion Shim Selection – Shim Selected in Assembly

• Backlash Value – Final Backlash Value

• Contact Pattern – Image of contact pattern

• Drive Head Rotation Checking - OK

• Leak Test – OK with Leak Rate

• Oil Flushing – OK Tag
