•
Expansion of the VMS4300/5300 multi-dimensional measurement system with a
reading station.
•
Depending on the application, this station can consist of scanners, cameras,
application-specific trigger elements and/or a combination of these components in
any desired arrangement.
•
Allows automated object identification using bar codes.
•
Streamlines process automation.
NOTE!
The multi-dimensional measurement system can also supply the focus
information for the connected camera systems.
•
The devices are connected to the multi-dimensional measurement system via the
CAN bus of the SIM2000 system controller.
•
The SIM2000 system controller links the acquired identification data with the
dimension values calculated by the VMS4300/5300.
•
Identification data and dimension values are output together to the higher-level
system.
