Line downtime: thousands of euros per hour

In the automotive industry, every minute of lost production has a major financial impact. Assembly lines, presses, welding robots must run continuously.

  • High output rates imposed by manufacturers
  • Contractual penalties for late delivery
  • Downtime costs of several thousand euros per hour
  • Domino effect across the entire production chain

Complexity of robotic equipment

Automotive production lines integrate hundreds of robots, conveyors and automated stations requiring specialized maintenance.

  • Welding, painting and assembly robots
  • Conveyors and transfer stations
  • Vision systems and specific sensors
  • Equipment interdependence complex to diagnose

Quality traceability: a critical requirement

The automotive industry is subject to strict quality standards (IATF 16949, ISO 9001). Every intervention must be tracked and documented.

  • Mandatory IATF 16949 compliance
  • ISO 9001 certification to maintain
  • Complete intervention traceability
  • Documentation accessible for customer audits

  • Weak signals detected
  • Failure anticipation
  • Based on actual usage
  • No additional sensors required

Operational dashboards

Key indicators accessible at all levels of the organization for effective management.

  • Availability per line
  • MTTR and MTBF per equipment
  • Preventive backlog
  • IATF/ISO indicators
