Precision Placement of the Touchpad PDF (328.42 KB · 03/31/16)

The installation of the keyboard and touchpad in a notebook housing requires maximum precision. To meet this requirement, a modular measuring station has been developed that uses 3D laser triangulation to measure the precise position of the keys and the depth of the touchpad slot.

Batteries perfectly welded PDF (154.45 KB · 03/31/16)

The manufacturing process for battery modules for electric cars demands utmost precision. Because the position and height of the battery cells vary due to production tolerances, the laser that welds the battery pole to the conductor plate must be positioned precisely for each cell. For this purpose, Manz AG has developed a laser welding machine that uses 3D laser triangulation to determine the exact height and position of the battery cells.
