Abstract :
Summary form only given. This paper case studies and targets the "cradle to grave" approach for integrating a laser base system related to a high volume automotive application. A "five step approach" is be discussed defining the system\´s design, process development, workcell simulation, cost justification, and integration/installation launch.
