A Hemming Cell is an automated assembly station used in automotive manufacturing to join sheet metal parts by folding the edges over one another. Commonly used for doors, hoods, and trunk lids, it ensures high dimensional accuracy and aesthetic finish. The cell typically includes robotic arms, hemming tools, conveyors, and vision systems for precise alignment. Hemming can be done using roller, press, or tabletop methods, depending on the component design. This process strengthens the joint without welding, maintains surface quality, and supports high production efficiency. Hemming cells are integral to modern car body production lines, offering flexibility and repeatability.
Automated Process :Fully automated robotic or servo-driven operation for consistent, repeatable hemming quality.
High Precision and Accuracy : Ensures tight dimensional control and uniform flange roll, critical for appearance and performance.
Modular Design :Easily configurable for different product variants or production lines.
Multiple Hemming Techniques : Supports different methods such as table top hemming, roll hemming, and press hemming.
Quick Changeover Capability : Tooling and part fixtures can be quickly switched for various models or panels.
