The solution

The subassemblies of the ladder frame (side members, cross members and add-on parts) are manufactured in 14 highly standardized welding stations, 

each with one component loading station and two fixtures. 

KUKA dual turnover positioners are used to place all components in the best position with regard to ergonomics or processes.

This way, operators or robots have optimal access to the components at all times. 

The finished side members and cross members are then picked up by fully automated linear gantries.

KUKA is the world's leading provider of production systems in the automotive industry. 

With years of experience, we are the master in the design of flexible and efficient production processes. 

As the result, we are able to guide our customers into the direction of industry 4.0 with future-oriented solutions.

The KUKA Power Pack is the drive power supply of the robot controller and generates the intermediate circuit voltage 

with which the internal drive controllers and external drives are supplied. 

Challenges in the Automotive Industry

The automotive industry is very dynamic and requires extreme flexibility from automotive manufacturers. 

The growing global competition demands smart production systems, combined with flexible logistics systems.

They can be adapted quickly and thus also serve the ever-increasing demand for model diversity. 

In addition to the installation, a simple operation of the system plays an important role.

Automotive manufacturers increasingly find that they have to expand their core competencies in areas ranging from automotive industry to mobility or even to re-define those areas. 

They are only able to stand in the competition if they could cope with developments around Industrie 4.0. demographic change and data-driven production.
