messung product used in indian automobile and automotive manufacture sector.so long from 1981
The automotive industry is the most highly automated manufacturing industry. Given that a myriad of robotics, programmable controllers and drive systems work in a real-time process environment, automotive manufacturing systems needto be highly accurate, efficient and reliable.
Machines used in automotive manufacturing rely on some of the most complex automation platforms, employing advanced and powerful PLC systems to precisely control multi-axis interpolated motion sequences. There is an ongoing effort to streamline the programming of these systems so that they are more “open” and easier to use. These efforts are also being done to add more functionality to machine tools, such as more user-friendly operator interfaces (HMIs), visualization capabilities and real-time data capturing capabilities. Industry code programming standards such as IEC61131 have helped improve machine automation programming tremendously.
Whether it is machines used by automotive manufacturers such as press lines, welding lines, painting lines, engine assembly and chassis assembly lines; or machines used by Tier 1 manufacturerswho produce ancillaries such as brakes, connecting rods, pistons, clutches,transmission components like steering and axles, differential gear boxes, etc. -automationin machine tools helps manufacturers meet their production targets.
MESSUNG AND THE AUTOMOTIVE SECTOR
To help automobile manufacturers and suppliers handle constantly rising productivity and quality demands, Messung provides automation solutions for optimising all production processes. The range of industrial automation applications covers the Press shop, Body shop, Assembly shop and Paint shop, as well as the intricate network of conveyors running through the factory.
Whether it is special purpose machines or pick-and-place systems, hydraulic/mechanical presses or overhead conveyors, milling, grinding & turning or aluminum diecasting and forging - Messung provides IoT-enabled automotive automation and control for machines and linked plants, they optimise every process stage and ensure greater reliability.
Messung solutions also facilitate the “Andon” system, the “Poka Yoke” system and the “Pica Pica” system that help automobile manufacturers to create an error free assembly process for the Engine assembly line and the Chassis assembly line. These systems help prevent errors, eliminate waste and streamline processes.
In addition to turnkey system solutions, Messung supplies standard Automation products, which allow machine manufacturers to configure controllers that are individually tailored to their applications. The control platform is based on industry and IT standards, and supports the implementation of Industry 4.0 concepts for machine-to-machine communication and for data processing and analysis in the cloud (OPC-UA and MQTT).
