en.Wedoany.com Reported - Artificial Intelligence quality control system provider Coherix continues to expand the industrial applications of its Adaptive Process Control technology in 2026. The company's 25,000-square-foot North American headquarters and innovation center in Ann Arbor, Michigan, USA, is now fully operational. Its quality control system, based on 3D laser vision and AI, enables fully automated inspection and real-time adjustment at assembly line speeds in the automotive, electronics, and plastic processing sectors.
Coherix is a high-tech company headquartered in Ann Arbor, Michigan, USA, with operations in China, Germany, Japan, Mexico, and Singapore. Its global customer base includes over 50 of the world's leading automotive original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and more than 75 Tier 1 suppliers, encompassing vehicle manufacturers such as BYD, Ford, Geely, General Motors, Honda, Hyundai, Mercedes-Benz, Renault, Seres, and Toyota, as well as component suppliers like Bosch, Gestamp, Kirchhoff, Kubota, and Magna.
On the technical front, Coherix's system uses laser 3D vision, artificial intelligence, and machine learning to monitor in real time the geometry, volume, position, and process variations of adhesives and sealants during high-speed production. It automatically adjusts dispensing parameters to maintain optimal performance, forming a closed-loop control system that requires no speed reduction. According to the company, its system can save 25% or more in labor and material costs. Coherix has invested over $100 million and 1 million engineering hours in the development of Adaptive Process Control technology.
During industry events in 2026, Coherix held an Open House at its Ann Arbor Innovation Center in April, demonstrating how its 3D inspection systems and Adaptive Process Control solutions monitor and automatically adjust adhesive and sealant dispensing operations. The company also conducted a joint demonstration with Kawasaki Robotics at the 2026 AUTOMATE show in Chicago. Dwight Carlson, Chairman and CEO of Coherix, stated that manufacturing is moving toward fully autonomous production environments, where quality must be verified and controlled in real time.
By combining 3D vision, machine learning, and Adaptive Process Control, Coherix helps manufacturers transition from traditional "post-inspection" models to true "defect prevention." Its technology has been widely applied in automotive, battery production, electronics, and advanced mobility sectors. As production tolerances tighten, this intelligent in-line process control is shifting from "optional" to "essential."
