AUTOMOTIVE
Vision and robotics for the automotive sector
In automotive manufacturing, every micrometer counts. We design machine vision and robotics systems for assembly verification, robot guidance and high-precision metrology, integrated into the MES and validated against the most demanding OEM standards.
SECTOR FOCUS
Why automotive matters to AIS Group.
Automotive is the most unforgiving industry the group works in: one defect can recall millions of units. Across AIS Group we ship 2D/3D metrology, vision-guided robotics, DPM (direct part marking) verification and AI-based weld and surface inspection — all tied back into the OEM MES with traceability down to the serial number.
HOW THE GROUP DELIVERS
Four companies. One sector playbook.
Each group company brings a specific layer to automotive — from inspection hardware and validated automation to vision AI and lifecycle service.
AIS Vision Systems
2D/3D metrology and robot guidance
High-precision metrology, robot guidance with 3D vision, assembly defect inspection and variable mark reading — built on Cognex and Omron hardware.
AIS Vision Automation
Custom automotive robotic cells
Bespoke turnkey cells designed, built and delivered for Tier-1 automotive — Valeo runs AIS Vision Automation cells in its operations.
AIS Scanology
DPM (direct part marking) verification
ISO 15415/15416 and DPM-specific verifiers with the Microscan LVS-9580 handheld, certified for automotive supply chains.
Rosepetal AI
AI weld-defect detection
A deep-learning vision system designed to inspect and classify weld quality in real time, trained on hundreds of thousands of welds across multiple OEMs.
Capabilities for automotive
What we deliver to automotive.
High-precision metrology
Robot guidance with 3D vision
Assembly defect inspection
Cross-referencing control
Variable mark inspection
Traceability and serial number reading
USE CASES
Typical applications on a automotive line.
Drawn from real deployments across the four companies. If your line looks like one of these, we have a starting point already.
AI weld-defect detection
Real-time deep-learning classification of weld quality on the line — catches porosity, undercut and lack-of-fusion that escape standard rule-based vision.
Panel surface inspection
Detection of dents, scratches and paint defects on body panels using AI vision tuned to glossy and reflective surfaces.
VIN / DPM verification
Direct part marking verification on castings, blocks and structural parts — graded inline against ISO standards.
Robot-guided assembly
Vision-guided pick, place and fixture verification with 2D and 3D cameras integrated with the cell controller.
Metrology and dimensional control
2D and 3D inline metrology — micron-level dimensions checked at production speed, no offline measurement room needed.
Cross-reference & part presence
Verification that every component on every sub-assembly matches the build order — before it leaves the station.
STANDARDS & COMPLIANCE
Validated for the regulations that govern automotive.
