Stand alone fixtures for a automotive instrument panel program.  Fixtures functions include: Clip, demister grille, bezel assembly.  Component vision verification.  DC torquing of bowl feed screw.  Each fixture incorporates a PLC control, color HMI, light curtains and stack lights.Conforming Matrix designs automated assembly solutions for your product specific requirements.  Whether your needs are basic (table top assembly without sensing) or complex (multiple components without operator contact), we will incorporate the appropriate technologies to reach the desired production result.  Allow us to estimate your full program or stand alone fixture requirements.
