Development of an automated spot weld inspection device for safe vehicle repair (SpotTrack)

Start date: Nov 1, 2011, End date: Dec 31, 2013,

There are over three thousand spot welds in a typical car. When a car is repaired the spot welding parameters can be different as the mass production machinery used in manufacture can no longer be used. The repairer often is not an expert at inspecting spot welds. Assured reliability of the spot weld is paramount, since the integrity of the spot welds is vital to the crash performance of a car and ...
