VISION, SENSORS & ALIGNMENT

Our expertise in vision inspection, mechatronics and automation come together in extremely precise alignment operations based on sensor feedback.

Z

HANDLING & GLUING/WELDING

We use the latest absolute-positioning technologies to support automated gluing or ultrasonic welding operations, followed by UV or oven curing.

Automated Production + Integrated Quality Inspection

Due to the continuing trend of product miniaturization with increased complexity, accurate gluing, welding, laser and assembly solutions are key for next-generation devices. As a result, the clear distinction between assembly and testing starts to blur. In smartphones, for example, testing and soldering the battery is one step in the production process. Hence, a combination of ultra-precise dosing, fixation, positioning and real-time feedback is essential to ensure best results and maximum reliability.

Precisely Assembled

If your product requires ultra-precise handling, positioning and component joining/assembly, an Averna turnkey solution will ensure maximum reliability, efficiency and output. Our multi-disciplinary capabilities in sensors, machine vision, automation, handling/robotics, gluing and quality inspection ensure we can solve even the most challenging product assembly and production tasks.

Going Far Beyond
Human Precision

Our highly integrated Precision Assembly solutions combine the following Averna expertise:

Assembly Options

  • Gluing (1.5 mg over 50 mm dispensing): With modern devices being mostly glued together, the glue path needs to be as accurate and thin as possible, while still ensuring solidity. See our Océ success story >>
  • Laser welding: Welding together mechanical parts in modern devices requires ultra-precise positioning. For this, we often use a combination of different technologies, including vision inspection and motion.
  • Ultrasonic welding: Using high-frequency ultrasonic acoustic vibrations to create a solid-state weld has numerous advantages. Say goodbye to connective bolts, nails, soldering materials or adhesives needed to bind the materials together.
