Packaging is a crucial stage in the mass production of components, especially when it comes to threaded components fabrication. Currently, the process of segregating bolts based on their length and thread presence is done manually, leading to numerous errors during packaging. To address this issue and achieve greater accuracy and perfection, we propose a digital segregation method using an electronic control module. By placing this module along the assembly line, it can automatically divide bolts according to their lengths and the presence of threads, eliminating the need for manual intervention and reducing human errors. Implementing this Mechatronics system allows for more precise and accurate punching of bolts based on their size, resulting in high-quality packaging that takes into account various segregation factors.
