Abstract: A method for setting a roller hemming process for hemming a plurality of identical component arrangements comprises guiding a hemming roller arranged on a robot by the robot in accordance with a predetermined hemming path for forming a hemming flange of a component of a component arrangement, wherein a hemming process force acting on the hemming roller by the robot during forming is detected, wherein the hemming process force can be changed by a corresponding control of the robot, and a target hemming quality to be achieved is predetermined. The robot is controlled to achieve the target hemming quality, taking into account the detected hemming process force and an actual geometry of a formed hemming flange resulting from the forming process.
