Bonding

Body Text TBD

This particular machine soldered buttons and bonded a carrier to a center glass window of the DT Rear Slider Assembly. There are 2 stations on the fixture that operator on a rotary cylinder. The front of the fixture is where the solder buttons, and carriers are applied. The rear of the fixture is the UV curing station to cure the glue for the carrier. For this fixture we also incorporated priming/burnishing stations to each size of the fixture that were mounted to arms that could be positioned where comfortable for the operator.

When there are multiple pieces to a window assembly, it may make sense to automate a complete work cell to assemble a window. For this application we were assembling a rear slider for a pick-up truck. This incorporated a conveyor fed work cell where a robot would pick up the raw glass, and place it into a priming station where the robot would prime the windows. From there the material handling robot would place it in a cure rack to let the primer cure. From there the robot takes it to a bonding station.
