Fill-Level Measurement of Spices in Frozen Pizza Production via Ultrasonic Sensor
Frozen pizzas are produced and the toppings added in highly automated production facilities. Spices such as oregano are sprinkled on top of the pizzas after the toppings have been added. The spice mixture is located in an open container directly above the conveyor belt. An ultrasonic distance sensor in a hygienic stainless steel housing monitors the container to detect the exact fill level at all times so the container can be refilled in good time. The level can be continuously monitored thanks to the analog output.
Ultrasonic Distance Sensors
Distance sensors are suitable for the detection, differentiation and measurement of objects by means of ultrasound. Different operating modes, such as synchronous, multiplex or through beam mode, can be set via the display or centrally via IO-Link, and different output variants and designs enable a wide range of possible applications.
