Desoutter CVI3 Advanced Assembly System

From simple tightening to a complete process control

Our close cooperation with the main automotive manufacturers has helped develop the Desoutter CVI3 assembly system. Dedicated to meet the demanding requirements of this industry segment, the CVI3 platform assures the traceability of all the safety critical application processes. The integration of error proofing modules and the wide range of tools offer the flexibility to adapt to each application.

Unique Controller Platform

Each controller has the benefit of sharing the same architecture and design with a global software suite.

Optimize the tightening process

• Network communication : standard fieldbus & advanced customer protocols
• Tightening Strategy : combine flexible steps with different control and different monitoring
• Assembly process : control a complete operation with several tightenings and logics
• Direct visualization and access : simple configuration and results on the controller screen and on a remote HMI

Wide Range of Tools 

The CVI3 tools are designed to deliver maximum comfort, high productivity and unmatched flexibility.

The brushless motor combined with the torque transducer is a robust solution. Whatever the shape or connection, you will find the right tool.

Full error proofing

• Thanks to dedicated error proofing accessories on bus communication, the process is 100% reliable and under control.
• Extend your automation control with the CVI Logix features to have a complete stand alone working station thanks to an ePOD module.

Customize to Fit 

Special heads, specific shapes and customized machines can be designed to meet all requirements. Furthermore, the use of arms, torque tubes, tool holders and stands will complete the overall installation.

Benefits 

• Fast installation and commissioning thanks to the connectivity and the user-friendly interface
• Assembly quality guaranteed with the process control and the error proofing modules
• Reliable and safe with robust tools and hardware backup with the ePOD device
• Ready for your next requirements thanks to upgrade capabilities and tool range flexibility

Increase your productivity in the blink of an eye

Increasing productivity means finding a way to reduce the tact time for the operation. By synchronizing different tightenings, the operation time can be drastically reduced. The TWINCVI3 or the WORKGROUP SYNCHRO allows such operations with easy installation and commissioning. A unique entry point is enough to configure the overall system and to collect the data.

TWINCVI3 Vision
