EV Battery Sealing Optimization: $450K Weekly Savings with Coherix Z-Tracking
A leading global EV manufacturer achieved $450,000 in weekly savings by improving battery pack sealing performance using Coherix Z-Tracking.
The Challenge: Battery Pack Sealing Variation in EV Production
In high-volume EV manufacturing, part-to-part variation in battery packs creates serious challenges for robotic dispensing processes. These inconsistencies can lead to:
- Sealant application defects
- Robot path instability
- Nozzle crashes and downtime
- Increased scrap and rework
The Solution: Coherix 3D Z-Tracking Technology
The manufacturer implemented Coherix 3D Z-Tracking, a real-time adaptive dispensing solution that automatically adjusts robot motion based on surface variation. This ensures consistent tip-to-part distance during battery sealing operations.
The Results: Improved Quality and Major Cost Savings
With Z-Tracking, the manufacturer achieved:
- Stable, consistent sealant application
- Reduced unplanned downtime
- Eliminated recurring dispensing issues
- Approximately $450,000 per week in production savings
Why It Matters for EV Manufacturing
As EV battery production scales, process control and dispensing accuracy are critical to maintaining throughput and quality. Coherix 3D Z-Tracking helps manufacturers reduce variability, improve uptime, and optimize robotic sealing performance.
