Vesta, Iskra, and Azimut to become more precise: AvtoVAZ implemented gap control with photogrammetry

Improved body geometry will enhance assembly quality and sealing

AvtoVAZ has implemented a non-contact body geometry control system using photogrammetry in the production of Vesta, Iskra, and Azimut models. The new technology allows for more accurate monitoring of gaps between body elements and faster correction of deviations during the assembly process.

According to industry sources, the manufacturer has started using a digital measurement system based on cameras and specialized software. It records the slightest deviations in body geometry without physical contact with the parts, which reduces the risk of damaging painted surfaces and increases control accuracy.

Initially, the method was implemented on the Vesta assembly line, after which it is planned to extend it to other models in the lineup. The company expects that this will reduce the variation in the fit of doors, hood, and trunk, as well as stabilize the assembly quality between batches of cars. It is noted that geometric accuracy directly affects the level of noise insulation and body sealing.

In fact, this is about transitioning to a more digital approach to quality control, where production deviations are detected faster and can be corrected already at the assembly stage.
