Method of inspecting and manufacturing vehicle body

摘要

After outer panels have been assembled on a vehicle frame, they are coated with an aqueous lustering agent P, and then irradiated with a light beam L. Light reflected by the outer panels is processed to produce a degree and range of distortion thereof. Based on the produced degree and range of distortion, it is determined whether the outer panels suffer a surface distortion or not. The determined result is displayed on a display monitor. According to the displayed image, the outer panels are repaired and thereafter coated with a paint.
