High-Precision Hemming
for Class-A Surface Quality

Roller hemming is a critical process in automotive closure manufacturing, requiring controlled force application and precise robot path programming to achieve consistent flange formation without surface distortion.

MBE robotic hemming systems are engineered to:

  • Maintain Class-A surface integrity

  • Deliver uniform flange quality across complex geometries

  • Minimize scrap and rework

  • Ensure repeatable, stable process performance

 

Robotic Roller Hemming System Capabilities

Our systems are designed to meet the demands of modern automotive production environments, including:

  • Multi-pass roller hemming processes

  • Steel and aluminum closure compatibility

  • Flexible robotic path programming

  • Integrated part locating and fixturing systems

  • Scalable configurations for low-to-high volume production

  • Integration with adhesive and joining processes

Applications in Automotive Closure Assembly

MBE robotic roller hemming systems support a wide range of closure components:

  • Door assemblies

  • Hood assemblies

  • Liftgates and tailgates
