Automatic Machines for Rotative and Linear Electric Actuator Manufacturing
P&M has developed a deep experience in the production of automatic and semi-automatic machines for the production of rotary and linear electric actuators for automotive applications, whether they are used in applications for the management of exhaust gases of turbo systems (waste gate), for the management of the engine power supply (variable throttle), for the activation of the parking systems or other functions present on the vehicle.
For these products, P&M designs, manufactures and installs:
- Welding modules of sub-assemblies, both in plastic and in metal
- Chip feeding by reel, heat staking and chip soldering modules
- Automatic tightening(screwing) modules
- Dispensing modules for grease, pastes and liquids
- Power supply modules, singularization, manipulation and assembly of robotic sub-components
- Product marking and coding modules
Our modules can be easily integrated into automatic lines thanks to communication protocols on modern field buses, with which to easily manage work recipes, product changes, scraps reworking, alarms and machine and line emergencies.
Each process station within our machines can be followed by a process control station that evaluates its quality and carries out the pass/ not pass of the semi-finished product with both qualitative and quantitative techniques, including:
- Image quality control of welding
- Image control for pastes and conductive greases deposit
- Adjustment and control of torque and tightening stroke
- Electrical absorption test
- Mechanical test of torque and power
- Curing test for conformal coating
- Calibration and verification of linearity, accuracy and hysteresis for analog, SENT and PWM sensors.
Test Benches for Automotive Components
P&M offers a wide choice of solutions for testing, calibration and electromechanical characterization of each product with both horizontal and vertical, single or multiple, stand-alone or modular test benches.
The various types of tests, both standard and specific to each customer, can be defined from time to time by remote recipe or by the operator, intervening in both cases also in the modification of each particular test parameter.
Starting from standard HMI (Human Machine Interface), each customer can request the customization of the various control panels, which can be managed at various levels with the possibility of differentiated authorizations depending on the type of operator active on the test bench.
The results are acquired through modern high-performance FPGAs in a deterministic way and processed by powerful RT processors for immediate control of the data, which can be stored both locally and on a remote server.
