BENTELER: Quality Assurance & Real-time Analyses Across Sites
Automated metrology solutions for car body manufacturing.
The automotive supplier BENTELER manufactures parts and modules for chassis, car bodies, engine, and exhaust systems as well as e-mobility solutions, which are all subjected to strict safety inspections on a daily basis. “A B-pillar must last in the event of a crash. For this reason, we never compromise on quality,” Eduard Reuswich, Continuous Improvement Manager, explains.
For quality assurance, the company relies on optical 3D metrology by ZEISS. At their headquarters in Paderborn, Germany, parts are first digitized using a ZEISS ScanBox optical measuring machine and then analyzed with the inspection software ZEISS INSPECT. Plans for multi-site monitoring include implementing ZEISS ScanBox systems at additional locations, with inspection plans rolled out centrally across sites. The ZEISS PiWeb reporting software enables real-time analysis of global measurement data.
