Assembly of critical threaded connections such as safety belt and steering wheel screw joints must be quality assured to 100%. Not only the screw needs to be in position but the strength of the joint must also be guaranteed. To accomplish this, classical process surveillance is combined with angle monitoring and screws with special features. A plant system that keeps track on cars of various variants sends information to a screw joint controller that in turn sends a unique parameter set to the screw joint equipment. Together with so-called socket trays and balancing rules, the process arrangement can be made in such a way that the wrong screw can never be assembled without detection. To provide sufficient strength of joints, different kinds of angle monitoring are used. For example, entering/down running angle monitoring that are used to secure sufficient thread engagement with static high strength joints. Angle monitoring is also used to control that all parts are in position before the joint is tightened. For clamp load critical joints, final angle monitoring is used. Together with standard torques and standard assembly friction given by standard fasteners, sufficient clamping force can be guaranteed. With clamp load critical chassis joints, gradient-controlled yield point tightening has shown to be a successful assembly technique with the all new Volvo XC90. Furthermore, screws with special thread geometries are used to avoid cross threading, and in many cases hand entering can be taken away. Altogether, it can be concluded that the Volvo Cars assembly technology not only is very safe but also at a relatively low cost.
