Introduction
The inductive guidance sensor HG G-193x0-B is used for the inductive track guidance of
Automated Guided Vehicles (AGV). Up to 5 different guide wire frequencies may be detect-
ed and evaluated simultaneously. Alternatively a ground installation for the contact-less in-
ductive energy transmission with two wires (from here on also
energy track
) can be used for
the track guidance.
The guide wire frequencies to be detected are configured via the USB interface. The energy
track depends on the variant of the inductive guidance sensor and is supported in the im-
plementations listed in Table 1 below. Additionally an incremental encoder for the measure-
ment of distance or speed may be connected directly to the sensor. All incremental encod-
ers can be used that have a switching threshold > 10 V between high level and low level
(typically 24V incremental encoders). The encoder values are also output via the bus.
2.1 Variants/Versions
The inductive guidance sensor is available in two different variants with different bus / in-
terface types. The variant is printed on the device‘s identification label.
2.2 Range of Use
•
The inductive guidance sensor is intended for indoor usage.
•
Inside the track a guide wire is layed that is operated in the frequency range 2 to
20 kHz. Alternatively there is a ground installation for the contact-less inductive
energy transmission. These energy tracks are supported in the implementations
listed in Table 1 above. A matching variant of the inductive guidance sensor has to be
used.
•
The inductive guidance sensor can follow turn-offs in guide wire installations by
using different frequencies for the different wires.
•
The inductive guidance sensor can
not follow
turn-offs in energy track installations.
Thus the energy track may not have switch points. For energy track installations with
switch points Götting has different antennas with more than one detection system.
•
The inductive guidance sensor is installed so that its underside faces the roadway
and meets the nominal reading distance towards the guide wire.
