Figure 32: Volume Tolerances Navigation
When ‘
Volume Inspection
’ is
enabled
the ‘
Volume Bar Graphic
’ will be displayed at the
bottom of the window. The ‘
Volume Bar
’ is a graphical representation of the products current
measured volume.
As shown in Figure 25, there are 3 different Volume Analysis Results:
·
Low Glue / Under Glued Area Indicator
– is represented on the left side (Section 1) of
the volume bar and is colored red. When the black indicator is in this area, the product’s
glue volume is
outside/below
the Sensor’s
Negative Volume Threshold Tolerance
.
·
Good Glue Area Indicator
– is represented in the center (Section 2) of the volume bar
and is colored green. When the black indicator is in this area, the product’s glue volume is
good/inside
the Sensor’s
Positive and Negative Volume Threshold Tolerances
.
·
Excess / Over Glued Area indicator
– is represented on the right side (Section 3) of the
volume bar and is colored red. When the black indictor is in this area, the product’s glue
volume is
outside/over
the Sensor’s
Positive Volume Threshold Tolerance
.

A way to interpret ‘
Volume
’ is to think of the amount of glue on the product. Since the amount of
glue can sometimes fluctuate during production, this is a way to make sure products are being
glued consistently.
Note1 –
Since the
volume
of the inspection is
relative
to the
volume of the glue
on the
learned product
, it is best to
learn after running a few products
because
glue can dry on
the valve
and
could cause the first product to not be glued correctly
.
Note2 –
When
receiving
numerous
volume errors
, first try performing a
new learn
to
recalibrate
the
learned volume
. If that does not help,
increasing the Positive and Negative
Volume Tolerances can help fix and filter volume error messages
.
