1. High-Speed Vision-Guided Inspection for Automotive Bearing Manufacturing

In high-speed automotive assembly, incorrect bearing orientation or sub-micron surface defects cause catastrophic field failures and costly warranty claims. Manual visual inspection at 120 parts per minute is statistically unreliable and operator-dependent.

Engineering Challenge

  • High-speed component conveyance with random part orientation upon arrival.
  • Varying surface reflectivity and optical glare from anti-rust oils.
  • Strict cycle time limit of under 450 milliseconds per component.
  • Requirement for 100% 2D barcode verification and laser-etched character OCR.

Lubi Technical Solution

  • Dual Cognex high-resolution vision sensors with polarized LED ring illumination.
  • In-house pneumatic reversal mechanism providing complete top and bottom 360° inspection.
  • Direct Profinet interface between vision processor and main plant Siemens PLC.
  • High-speed pneumatic rejection actuator with encoder-tracked part sorting.
Measured Field Results:

Defect escape rate reduced to 0 PPM; inspection throughput increased by 35% compared to semi-automated lines; full batch traceability stored in central SQL database.

2. Greenfield Specialty Chemical Plant Electrical Infrastructure & Motor Control

A major chemical manufacturing expansion required a robust, continuous Low Voltage (LT) power distribution and motor control infrastructure capable of operating reliably in harsh chemical ambient conditions.

Engineering Challenge

  • Continuous process operation with zero tolerance for unplanned power outages.
  • Corrosive ambient environment requiring strict panel enclosure protection (IP65).
  • High inductive motor loads demanding automatic power factor correction (APFC).
  • Complex interlocking requirements between MCC panels, pumps, and tank farms.

Lubi Technical Solution

  • Engineered 5000A Type-Tested Power Control Center (PCC) conforming to IEC 61439 standards.
  • 2500A Motor Control Center (MCC) panels featuring Schneider Electric ACB/MCCB switchgear.
  • Automatic Power Factor Correction (APFC) panel maintaining plant power factor at 0.99.
  • Comprehensive routine testing including dielectric, temperature rise, and short-circuit withstand.
Measured Field Results:

100% power uptime achieved during 18 months of continuous operation; electrical losses reduced by 14%; audit-approved panel documentation delivered with CE & IEC compliance certificates.

3. 21 CFR Part 11 Compliant ControlX SCADA for Pharmaceutical Manufacturing

A regulated pharmaceutical manufacturer producing oral solid dosage tablets needed to upgrade legacy isolated machine HMIs into an integrated, audit-ready supervisory control and data acquisition system.

Engineering Challenge

  • Manual logbook dependency creating risks of human data entry errors during batch runs.
  • Lack of encrypted audit trails and electronic signature verification required by US FDA / WHO.
  • Disparate PLC controllers across granulation, fluid bed drying, and tablet presses.
  • Need for zero data loss during network interruptions or power switching.

Lubi Technical Solution

  • Deployment of Lubi ControlX SCADA platform with native 21 CFR Part 11 compliance architecture.
  • Encrypted database logging with multi-level role-based access control (RBAC).
  • OPC UA protocol integration bridging legacy and modern PLCs into a unified SCADA server.
  • Automated batch report generation with digital signatures and alarm audit trail.
Measured Field Results:

Successful US FDA audit approval on first inspection; batch documentation time reduced from hours to automated instant generation; 100% data integrity verified.
