Code and BBD Reading on Cans by Bar Light
Code and BBD Reading on Cans by Bar Light
In the food industry, barcodes and the best before date (BBD) on cans must be read reliably in-process. Sufficient illumination is required for a machine vision camera to reliably recognize the data. A small bar light installed on the side of the conveyor illuminates the entire scanning area, enabling reliable code and BBD reading on cans. Its small dimensions and IP67 degree of protection make the bar light suitable for use in confined spaces and harsh ambient conditions.

Position Monitoring of the Running Wheels of Robots by Laser Distance Sensors Time of flight
Position Monitoring of the Running Wheels of Robots by Laser Distance Sensors Time of flight
In a block storage system, robots take over the transport of storage containers. To ensure precise movement of the robots on the rails of the storage system, two time-of-flight laser distance sensors are mounted between the wheels. During left/right movement, the sensors check that the wheels for forward/reverse movement are off the rail. Only then do they release the signal. At the same time, it is monitored whether the wheels are correctly and completely seated in the guide rail for the new direction of movement. If this is the case, the robot starts moving. Related applications can be found here.

Safety Inspection of Robots by Laser Distance Sensors Time of Flight
Safety Inspection of Robots by Laser Distance Sensors Time of Flight
The distance between the robot and the rail system must be continuously monitored during automated storage and retrieval as well as transport of storage containers in block storage systems by robots. For this purpose, two laser distance sensors (time of flight) in miniature design are mounted at an angle of approx. 90° between the wheels for left/right and forward/reverse movement. The sensors continuously measure if the distance to the rail system is correct to ensure that the robot is fully and correctly positioned on the guide rail. Related applications can be found here.

Position Monitoring of Robots in Block Storage Systems with Fork Sensors
Position Monitoring of Robots in Block Storage Systems with Fork Sensors
In a cube storage system, vessels such as containers, boxes or crates are stacked, stored and removed by robots and transported through the storage system. To monitor the position of the robots and the number of crossings passed, two fork sensors are installed between the wheels. During travel, the light beam of the light barrier is interrupted because the bar of the rail is between the fork arms of the sensor. At intersections, the web of the rail is interrupted, the light beam hits the receiver and registers the crossing. Related applications can be found here.

Double Layer Detection of Sheet Metal and Body Parts by Laser Distance Sensors Triangulation
Double Layer Detection of Sheet Metal and Body Parts by Laser Distance Sensors Triangulation
In the automotive industry, sheet metal parts are taken from a stock by a robot gripper and fed to the welding robot. Several sheets can stick together due to adherent oil, wedging of the sheets or magnetic charge. To ensure that only one sheet is gripped per assembly process, two laser distance sensors triangulation are mounted at opposite positions. The sensors measure the distance to the sheet and then calculate the sheet thickness via a difference calculation. If this result is greater than that of an individual sheet, a signal is output.

Checking the Dimensional Accuracy of Rubber Tracks with 2D/3D Profile Sensors
Checking the Dimensional Accuracy of Rubber Tracks with 2D/3D Profile Sensors
When manufacturing tires, the dimensional accuracy of the rubber treads must be checked at regular intervals. For this purpose, the width, thickness and profile of the black, glossy rubber tracks are precisely measured with a 2D/3D profile sensor. To ensure the safety of employees during maintenance work or machine malfunctions, the sensors are equipped with a certified laser shutdown. If the safety circuit is interrupted, the laser switches off while the sensor remains active. This reduces downtime to a minimum.

Anti-Collision Protection for Overhead Cranes via Laser Distance Sensor Time-of-Flight
Anti-Collision Protection for Overhead Cranes via Laser Distance Sensor Time-of-Flight
In the steel industry, overhead cranes are used to transport sheet metal coils. Since there are often several cranes on a shared track, there is a risk of collisions. Laser distance sensors time-of-flight work with a reflector mounted on the opposite crane. They measure the distance between two cranes up to a distance of 100 m and transmit the information to the control system. This enables hazardous distances to be detected and cranes to be slowed down in good time or stopped if they approach too closely.

Pin Check in Plug Production via Dark Field Illumination
Pin Check in Plug Production via Dark Field Illumination
When manufacturing plugs, it must be checked whether the correct number of pins are present and whether these pins are in the correct position. For this purpose, dark field illumination, consisting of a modular ring light and a dark field attachment, is attached together with a smart camera at a short distance in front of the products to be tested. Due to the very low angle of incidence (60°) of the light output, the illumination ensures the dark field effect and thus optimal illumination of the pin tips.

Detection of Rivets in Robot-Guided Punch Riveting via Inductive Ring Sensors
In the automotive industry, aluminum body parts are joined using rivets. In the case of robot-controlled punch riveting, the objects made of aluminum or brass are conveyed directly to the punching device through plastic hoses by compressed air. Before the rivets are applied automatically, the correct routing through the hose must be checked. For this purpose, an inductive ring sensor is installed on the hose via a clamp fastening. Thanks to the correction factor 1 and the adjustable sensitivity, objects of different sizes and alloys can be reliably detected.

2D Code
A 2D code, also known as a two-dimensional code, consists of a pattern of dark and light elements (bars, rectangles and squares with corresponding spaces in between) which are arranged in a 2D fashion. 2D codes have a more complex layout than 1D codes, and the technology required for acquiring and deciphering them is more complex as well as the scanner must always read the entire pattern depicted by the barcode in order to acquire and decipher 2D codes, and not just a horizontal line as is the case with 1D Codes. Two-dimensional codes contain more diverse information than one-dimensional codes, for example information for the identification of products, texts such as addresses, and delivery note numbers. In general, we differentiate within the 2D codes between the stacked codes (stacked code) and the matrix codes (DataMatrix code).

2D Code Scanner
A 2D code scanner is a scanner which operates according to the principle of an image processing system. It is equipped with a CCD or a CMOS element plus an integrated illumination and scans (scanning) a defined surface area depending on the selected scanning range. Thus, it is capable of reading 1D and 2D codes omnidirectionally.
