  • Patent number: 11364588
    Abstract: A method for cleaning using solid carbon dioxide is provided. Adhesive surfaces of the vehicle components are cleaned automatically in an assembly line including several work stations. The adhesive surfaces of the vehicle components may be adhesive surfaces of coated or painted vehicle components. The vehicle components may be composed of a metal alloy such as a steel or aluminum alloy, and/or composed of a fiber composite material such as carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic. The adhesive surfaces of the vehicle components may be cleaned with specifically adapted cleaning parameters.

  • Publication number: 20210063142
    Abstract: A method for automated position sensing of a seal relative to a component or at least one component region during or after automated application of the seal, wherein the relative position of the seal to the component or to the at least one component region is sensed by means of at least one sensor. There is also a device for performing the method, wherein the at least one sensor is arranged such that its main sensing direction is oriented to be perpendicular to the running direction of the seal or of the component or of the at least one component region or to deviate from it at an angle of up to 45 degrees and the at least one sensor with a sensing range senses the seal and/or the component or the at least one component region.
