Detection of spring
Task:
The customer has a station where the
presence of a spring on a component
needs to be verified. In many cases, a
Photoelectric sensor for transparent
detection can be used, but due to the
small target size, it was not successful.
A camera system was considered, but
was too sensitive.
How to ... (Setup and configuration)
For this application, the 25mm version with a finer resolution is needed. Set up the unit
in Reflector mode.
The measurement value can also be monitored using the analogue output or IO-Link for
more variables.
•
Run a reflector teach, followed by an
easy teach to evaluate the first
result
•
Run an advanced teach and based
on the reflectivity and transparency
of the spray, select your sensitivity.
In our case “Course” was suitable
•
Set the unit to Width measurement
•
In the Configuration Qint, set your
tolerance values in window mode
and output to QL1
