This fully automated STIWA system is used to assemble couplings for hose lines. These are used in vehicle cooling systems.
The assembly process begins with the automated feeding of the components to be assembled. After inspection by camera systems, the parts are turned, lubricated, and placed in the workpiece carrier. At the same time, the seals are also fed automatically, undergo a quality inspection, are aligned, and are then installed into the prepared components. Next comes the installation of the catch spring and cover, followed by a check of the insertion force. Only flawless couplings proceed to the final laser marking.
