A More Intelligent Solution to Meet New Challenges This evolution, which makes the cutting process more complex, is only possible for companies choosing to innovate. Lectra supports these companies by offering them the most forward-looking solution on the market. The new vision system integrated in Focus Airbag takes account of the shape of pieces.
The fabric and the pieces comprising it are thus automatically scanned and analyzed during the cutting phase. The geometry of the components, the position of the airbag and any possible distortions are taken into account. Each defective piece is identified to facilitate quality control, but without interrupting the cutting process.
The FocusAirbag OPW guarantees increased productivity and substantial material savings through an optimized and smoother process. Its new operating software offers a more effective tool path.
An Entirely Secure Process The FocusAirbag OPW can be directly connected to Lectra's Call Center and thus be linked to the best experts who will ensure successful operation of the solution. The operating software offers secure access based on user profiles. The basic features can be opened to less experienced operators, with access to the different system parameters being restricted to trained persons only.
"The integrated intelligence meets the reliability requirements of producers, who need production solutions that are available at all times, in a context where delays are heavily penalized," said Roy Shurling, Director of Lectra's worldwide automotive and transportation markets.
In parallel with the release of the FocusAirbag OPW solution, Lectra is launching a new VectorAuto automated cutting range that is specially designed for the production of automotive interiors and seats.
