An automotive Tier 1 manufacturing client approached MJ Engineering to design and install a quality system for the purpose of logging data and images from assemblies to provide product traceability. The system uses a 2D reader to read the unique serial identifier and then record the associated assembly data.

One part of the assembly process requires installing screws to specified torque requirements, the next stage is an automated vision based part inspection that checks to make sure the system is assembled correctly. Both the torque data and the vision image are logged to permanent files.

If the torque reading does not fall within tolerance or the vision inspection testing fails the part is not allowed to be packaged and an alarm will sound if an attempt is made to package failed parts.
