Use and Application
The
Data Matrix Positioning System
is the positioning system in the Fuchs incident
light process. The heart of the system is the reader, which has features including a camera
module with an integrated illumination unit. This enables the reader to detect position markers
printed onto a self-adhesive code tape in the form of 2-D
Data Matrix codes
.
The
code tape
is mounted on a fixed part of the plant (e.g. the wall of an elevator shaft or the
rail on a monorail conveyor). The reader is mounted on a moving "vehicle" positioned in parallel
with the code tape (e.g. on the elevator cab or on the chassis of a monorail conveyor).
Maximum Length of the Code Tape
The code tape length of up to 10 km is sufficient for even very large applications. It also offers
sufficient reserves for extensions or systems with several branches and parallel conveyor
routes.
The extensive yet user-friendly parameterization options as well as the freely configurable
inputs and outputs mean that the reader can easily be adapted to suit each application.
