AI 3D Vision for Robot Assembly and Automation
Cambrian Vision enables fast and accurate robot assembly across flexible manufacturing lines. Its AI-powered 3D vision provides reliable detection, alignment, and insertion of components without the need for mechanical fixtures or controlled lighting. From connector insertion to screw driving, Cambrian Vision helps automate the most delicate assembly tasks with precision and consistency.
Part Alignment and Assembly
Cambrian Vision identifies geometric features such as edges, holes, and alignment pins to support accurate positioning and fitting of components.It maintains precision even when part positions vary slightly, enabling reliable operation on dynamic and flexible assembly lines.
Typical use cases include automotive lighting, electronics modules, appliance components, and industrial subassemblies.
Screw Driving and Fastening
In automated screw-driving cells, Cambrian Vision detects screw holes, verifies their orientation, and guides robotic tools for accurate placement. Its AI 3D vision compensates for part tolerances and reflective surfaces, ensuring consistent torque and preventing cross-threading.
This is used in head lamp assembly, interior modules, and electronic enclosures where precision and repeatability are critical.
Connector Insertion and Fitting
Cambrian Vision recognizes connector positions directly from 3D data and guides robots to align and insert parts with sub-millimeter precision. It handles multi-pin plugs, small plastic housings, and hybrid metal-plastic connectors commonly found in automotive lighting, sensor, and electronic module assembly.
By automating connector insertion, manufacturers achieve higher throughput, improved quality, and reduced rework across mixed-model production lines.
