Glass Decking

In today's market, vehicles contain more and more glass panels to improve the driver and passenger experience.  For that reason, many automakers rely on Perceptron's Automated Manufacturing solution to automate their glass decking process.

In the example below, an automotive manufacturer used Perceptron gripper-mounted sensors to optimize the position of a windshield to the window opening.

Glass decking process:

  1. Robot position is adjusted to pick up the window correctly
  2. Glass is picked up by gripper and presented for glue application
  3. Window opening is measured and robot inserts glass for ideal fit
  4. Gripper releases glass
  5. Final glass position in opening is measured
  6. Robot returns to home position
