Case Study: Schabmüller Automobiltechnik achieves automated inline quality assurance with Carl Zeiss

Schabmüller Automobiltechnik eliminates complaints and inspects 35 critical characteristics in minutes with Carl Zeiss

Schabmüller Automobiltechnik, a manufacturer of cylinder head covers, faced intense global competition and needed a cost-effective way to ensure high quality to stand out. To meet this challenge, they partnered with vendor Carl Zeiss to implement an inline quality assurance solution using ZEISS production measuring machines integrated directly into their production line.

The solution from Carl Zeiss was a fully automated inline measuring station that uses robotic arms and probes to quickly scan components for critical characteristics. This integration has resulted in zero customer complaints since its implementation in 2017. The system also freed up metrologists for more complex tasks and provided transparent data visualization, leading to significant cost savings and higher production rates.
