INTELLIGENT SCREW LOCKING

Smart Fastening System

Vision precisely locates holes and screws while robots fasten at multiple positions on the whole unit, supporting digital flexible mixed production.

Pain Points

Manual screw fastening is a hidden bottleneck

Relying on the eye and hand, quality and cycle time fluctuate most in this high-frequency step

01/Quality

Floating and missed screws go unnoticed

Floating and missed screws are hard to spot immediately, driving up rework cost while leaving no traceable quality evidence

02/Changeover

Limited multi-model changeover efficiency

Manual changeover adjustment is tedious and cannot match the fast switching that flexible mixed production requires, capping line output

03/Human factors

Manual work lacks consistency

Long shifts cause fatigue, raising missed and misaligned screws and undermining stable operation on high-cycle lines

System Composition

Deploy the Smart Fastening System

and solve fastening in one step

Vision

Vision unit

Industrial cameras and lighting form the acquisition module, locating holes and recognizing screw orientation to provide real-time coordinates

Execution

Execution unit

Industrial robots carry the driver head and fasten to vision coordinates, supporting parallel, series and collaborative deployment

Feeding

Feeding unit

Screw feeding and sorting mechanisms form an automatic supply chain, delivering screws to the head continuously, stably and to spec

Control

Control unit

A dedicated controller coordinates vision, robot and feeding cycles while running fastening-quality algorithms in real time

Smart fastening whole-line deployment — multi-robot station
DEPLOYMENT 01 Whole-line deployment · multi-robot station
Smart fastening unit in operation — multi-angle robotic fastening
DEPLOYMENT 02 Unit in operation · multi-angle robotic fastening
Closed Loop

A four-step loop that fastens every screw automatically

From vision positioning to quality decision, four interlocking steps form a self-adapting, traceable fastening loop

STEP 01

Vision positioning

Cameras recognize hole position and screw orientation and output precise coordinates

STEP 02

Robot alignment

The robot moves the driver head to the coordinates and aligns with the target point

STEP 03

Automatic fastening

Fastens at multiple angles and positions — vertical, horizontal — with stable, non-stop feeding

STEP 04

Quality decision

Algorithms judge the result in real time, identifying floating and missed screws and logging process data

Multi-Position · Multi-Model

Covering fastening across positions and models

Adapts to different fastening positions, orientations and models, covering the varied scenarios of appliance manufacturing

01 · POSITION

Fastening positions

Back panel, top and other whole-unit positions, covering multi-face work needs

02 · DIRECTION

Fastening modes

Vertical and horizontal fastening to suit different stations and product orientations

03 · CATEGORY

Applicable categories

Widely used on appliance manufacturing lines

04 · SCENARIO

Typical conditions

Mixed-model lines, high-cycle lines, and repetitive fastening stations where long manual shifts cause fatigue and errors

Core Value

Precision, flexibility and traceability in one

Precision, flexibility and data capability converge in one standardized station, reused flexibly across categories and lines

// FLEXIBLE PRODUCTION

One line,
many variants

Vision adapts to different models without repeated changeover tuning, letting one line handle many variants and minimizing changeover cost

High-precision alignment

Vision guidance with AI recognition fastens reliably on complex shapes, markedly raising the pass rate

Traceable data

The vision system records the whole process so quality data can be traced and analyzed

General and reusable

As a standardized fastening station it deploys flexibly across appliance categories and line layouts
