Development of a quality control system for the antenna painting process.

The project aims to develop a new concept for quality control in the automotive antenna painting process, with the main tasks being:

  • Programming and simulation of an automated industrial line with three robots dedicated to labeling, transport, and packaging operations after quality control.
  • Programming and simulation of an automated industrial prototype with two robots for transporting antennas between the inspection area and the exit point, aiming to validate the quality process.
  • Simulation and feasibility analysis of the production process under study for reducing cycle time.

Component detection and bank control

The project aims to develop an integrated vision system for controlling bank accounts at various company locations, with the main tasks being:

  • Control of the slide position and tilt of the seat assembly.
  • Seat height control
  • Component detection
  • Photographic storage

Multivariable optimization of the pretreatment process in automotive manufacturing.

In automotive manufacturing, pre-treatment and/or surface treatment occurs before the application of anti-corrosion coatings and paint. At this stage, it is one of the limiting steps in increasing process productivity.

This project aimed to reduce the time required for pre-treatment/surface treatment by 10%.

Development of leak testing equipment for valves.

Since the original process for validating the tightness of plastic valves can be compromised by test time, air line pressure, or even the operator's critical judgment, a parameterized test device was created that allows one to determine if the part has a leak in the weld zone. This result is indicated to the operator by a light signal, allowing them to reject non-conforming parts.

Development of gravel drying

Development of equipment that would allow the client to compare two distinct processes for drying gravel: by hot air circulation or by heating using infrared lamps.

Study for optimizing the dynamic efficiency of Tesla turbine fluids.

Study of fluid dynamics in Tesla turbines, focusing on the identification and optimization of the main system parameters, including valves, piping network, injectors, and internal turbine components. Perform advanced numerical simulations (CFD and FEM) to characterize efficiency losses, analyze fluid-structure interaction, and propose design improvements (Beta Version).

Study of the impact of thermal transition on a sealing joint.

Cryogenic valves, focusing on the development and validation of ball valves capable of operating at extremely low temperatures, ensuring complete tightness during operation. Perform a series of numerical simulations using the Finite Element Method (FEM) to analyze stresses, deformations, and the integrity of metallic joints under cryogenic conditions.

Consulting and development of tools for diagnosing battery cells and modules.

Defining a strategy and methodology for the management of these batteries, analyzing technological trends and potential applications, and developing a diagnostic methodology at the module level to identify their condition, ensuring safe storage and supporting the decision between recycling and reuse.
