Body, Press & Assembly — cells, presses and the line between them
Welding, body-in-white, stamping and final assembly put people, robots and moving steel in the same space. Fogsphere detects the interactions that matter and logs the clip that shows each one.
Safety
Protect people where robots, presses, hot work and pedestrians share the same floor.
Security
Hold the perimeter, the gatehouse, the compounds and every restricted zone.
Operational Intelligence
Read line status, cycle time, bottlenecks and throughput from cameras already in place.
How Fogsphere sees a body shop and assembly line
A live operations layer on top of the cameras already covering your robot cells, press lines and assembly stations.
Key use cases
Real-world applications for a safer body shop and assembly line.
Robot-cell intrusion
Press exclusion zones
Welding PPE and arc exposure
Contractor and maintenance windows
Camera and surveillance assurance
Escort compliance for visitors
Cycle time and takt deviation
Bottleneck detection
Line-side material and kanban
Nobody inside an active cell, no guard left open
Robot-cell intrusion
Person inside an exclusion zone, light-curtain breach evidence, robot-person proximity and unauthorised maintenance entry during automated operation.
Guard state
Guard-open state, guard bypass, access panel left open and unexpected personnel during automated cycles.
Reaching into machinery
Person reaching into a machine, pinch-point intrusion on conveyors, CNCs and injection moulders, and unsafe intervention during jams.
Lockout/tagout verification
Visual LOTO workflow evidence, maintenance-panel-open detection and work-zone breach during isolation.
Contractor and maintenance windows
Contractor presence, work-zone activity, PPE, task progress, unsafe-zone entry and blocked routes during maintenance.
Incident reconstruction
Auto-clipped incident video with a timeline by zone, person, robot and object, plus near-miss hotspot dashboards.
Exclusion zones around the highest-energy assets on site
Press exclusion zones
Person inside a press exclusion zone, checked continuously rather than at the point a light curtain trips.
Material handling
Unsafe material handling, dropped parts and blank-stack instability around the press line.
Forklift and person conflict
Forklift-person conflict near the press line, pedestrian in a vehicle lane and cart-person conflict at line-side.
Hearing and PPE in noise zones
Ear-protection detection in press and machining noise zones and worker dwell time in high-noise areas.
Arc exposure, sparks and flammable zones
Welding PPE and arc exposure
Welding-mask detection, eye and face PPE and hot-work zone intrusion in body shops, fabrication and repair.
Spark and smoke anomalies
Spark and smoke anomalies near flammable material, cylinder storage and hot-work permit areas.
Fire routes and extinguisher access
Blocked exits, fire-door-left-open, extinguisher obstruction and evacuation-route crowding across the shop.
Hot-work permit evidence
Work-zone breach, PPE state and equipment access recorded against the permit window they belong to.
Takt, bottlenecks and the reason a station stopped
Line status
Line activity detection, station occupancy, WIP build-up, missing operator and abnormal stoppage.
Cycle time and takt deviation
Station start and finish events, takt deviation and repeated over-cycle hotspots against planned cycle time.
Bottleneck detection
Queue at station, WIP accumulation, operator wait, visual material-shortage signals and idle robots or cells.
OEE support
Machine idle and running state, stoppage evidence, blocked conveyor, downtime-reason video and repeated micro-stoppages.
Line-side material and kanban
Empty rack and bin detection, wrong container, line-side stockout, excess WIP, kanban lane occupancy and replenishment delay.
Andon evidence
Visual confirmation of a line stop, worker callpoint interaction, supervisor response time and issue duration.
