The bearing is deposited on a
platform, with a centering device
operated by a pneumatic
cylinder which locates it at a very
precise position, that is needed to
perform the measurement of the height
correctly.
Figure 38: Measuring manipulator.
This platform is lifted by a rodless pneumatic cylinder such that the bearing
contacts with a touch trigger and gives a height reading. The touch trigger
consists of a linear potentiometer with an output processed via an analogue
module included in the PLC.
After measurement, the lifter returns to its original position. Then, in case the
height does not correspond to the selected one, a cylinder pushes the bearing
towards a ramp.

Bearing insertion:
The final operation is performed by a
manipulator comprising a rotary-linear
system with an arm to which a two-finger
gripper has been fitted. After picking up
the bearing, the arm goes up, turns
through 180º and then goes down again
to insert the bearing in the housing of the
body.
