The solution uses terahertz technology to measure the thickness of the different paint layers applied to vehicle bodies without physical contact. This system allows real-time inspections throughout the manufacturing process, preventing potential surface damage while improving measurement accuracy.<\/p>\n
In the automotive industry, even minor variations in paint thickness can have a significant impact on both production costs and final product quality. According to company estimates, reducing paint thickness by just one micron can generate annual savings of between \u20ac1 million and \u20ac2 million in high-volume manufacturing plants.<\/p>\n
The technology developed by das-Nano has already been implemented by leading international manufacturers such as Volkswagen, Audi and Toyota, reinforcing the global reach of an innovation born in Navarra and demonstrating the competitiveness of the region\u2019s technology ecosystem in highly demanding industrial sectors.<\/p>\n
