Bottle inspection - roundness
Task:
During the manufacturing of glass bot‐
tles, quality inspections are done.
Depending on the need of the company
and their customers, the inspection
could consist of several cameras for
overall inspection, or a roundness
inspection. The roundness inspection
is important for the bottle to be suit‐
able for labelling and branding. Here
we can offer a solution to replace a
camera or camera set with our AS30.
How to ... (Setup and configuration)
Using the AS30, we can set two fields. One field would be the required accuracy toler‐
ance and the second, a confirmation that a bottle is detected. These two signals com‐
bined will set a switching output on pin 4.
The measurement value can also be monitored using the analogue output or IO-Link.
•
Set up the sensor with REF-AX-002
reflector
•
Do a reflector teach in Sopas
•
Run an advanced teach and based
on the transparency of your bottle,
select your sensitivity. For a clear
transparent bottle, consider Course.
•
In the Configuration Qint, set your
tolerance values in window mode
•
For Qint 2, set your broader detec‐
tion window
