Drive Independent Production Automation
Nextomation designs and integrates production systems for auxiliary automotive components used across combustion, hybrid and electric vehicle platforms. Our solutions combine precise mechanical and electromechanical assembly, controlled dispensing and sealing, actuator integration, calibration, vision inspection, functional testing and complete process traceability. We support manufacturers from early process analysis and simulation through implementation, ramp-up and long-term production service.
Drive-independent production systems
Mechatronic Modules
Automotive mechatronic modules combine mechanical components, electronic controls, sensors and moving elements within compact functional assemblies. We design automated production systems for pumps, actuators and control subassemblies that require accurate component positioning, stable motion control, reliable sealing and repeatable functional performance.
Processes
- Mechanical and electromechanical assembly
- Pump, actuator and control subassembly integration
- Controlled dispensing and sealing
- Calibration of moving components
- Vision inspection and dimensional verification
- Functional and end-of-line testing with traceability
Drive-independent production systems
Throttle Modules
Throttle modules require precise integration of the valve body, shaft, actuator, position sensors and electronic control components. Our automated systems maintain accurate valve positioning, controlled fastening and stable calibration while verifying airflow, movement and electrical functionality under repeatable production conditions.
Processes
- Valve body and shaft assembly
- Actuator and position sensor integration
- Controlled tightening and torque monitoring
- Sealing and controlled dispensing
- Position calibration and airflow verification
- Functional and end-of-line testing with traceability
Drive-independent production systems
Automotive Valves
Automotive valves used in thermal management, fluid control and auxiliary vehicle systems require accurate assembly, reliable sealing and repeatable flow characteristics. We integrate component handling, seal application, controlled joining, calibration and leakage testing into scalable production systems designed for stable serial manufacturing.
Processes
- Valve body and actuator assembly
- Seal, O-ring and gasket application
- Press-fitting and controlled joining
- Flow and pressure calibration
- Leakage and functional testing
- Vision inspection and complete traceability
