TURKA and Altınay Robot Technologies collaborated for robotic systems in vehicle inspection processes

TURKA and Altınay Robot Technologies collaborated for vehicle inspection processes. In the new era, robotic systems and digitalization come to the fore.

TURKA and Altınay Robot Technologies signed a strategic cooperation for vehicle inspection processes in Turkey. Within the scope of this partnership, it is aimed to use robotic systems, sensors and advanced digital technologies in inspection processes.

The systems to be developed are intended to make physical measurements in hard-to-reach points of vehicles more standard and repeatable. The data obtained is planned to be recorded digitally and integrated with other inspection systems.

The collaboration opens the doors to a technological transformation in vehicle inspection operations. The parties aim to offer these systems, which will be developed in Turkey, to foreign markets in the future.

Robotic systems and domestic technology

The design, system integration and control infrastructure of the robotic mechanisms to be used within the scope of the project are undertaken by Altınay Robot Technologies. Industrial robots developed by the GRASS platform within the Altınay Robot Group will work together with imaging systems.

This technology aims to minimize human error, especially in processes that require precise measurement. Hakan Altınay, Chairman of Altınay Technology Group, emphasizes that systems will play a critical role in areas that require digital data production and high repeatability.

An important part of the project is that components such as robot drivers, servo motors and control software to be used are domestically produced. It is aimed to offer this domestic technology infrastructure to vehicle inspection systems abroad in the future.

TURKA New Generation Vehicle Inspection Sample Center, which started operating in Arnavutköy, Istanbul, will be used to test these systems under field conditions. The developed technologies will be gradually integrated into operations in the light of data obtained from field applications.

The extent to which robotic systems will be used in vehicle inspection centers will be determined in the later stages of the project. Which controls will be automated and how they will be integrated with existing inspection standards will become clear with field applications.

New era as of 2027

TURKA is preparing to take over vehicle inspection services across Türkiye as of August 15, 2027. The company plans to continue this service for 20 years and aims to expand the scope of robotic systems in this process.

TURKA Executive Board Member Serhan Salman states that robotic systems will support the measurement and evaluation processes of technicians. However, it is underlined that final inspection decisions will continue to remain the responsibility of authorized personnel within the scope of current legislation.

How do you think this technological transformation will affect efficiency in vehicle inspection services?
