Introduction to the Autosampler
Transport Assembly
The stepper motor positions are determined by the optical encoders
mounted onto the stepper-motor housing. The encoders monitor the
position of the motors continually, and correct for position errors
automatically (e.g. if the gripper is accidentally moved out of position
when loading vials into the vial tray). The initialization positions of the
moving components are sensed by reflection sensors mounted on the flex
board. These positions are used by the processor to calculate the actual
motor position. An additional six reflection sensors for tray recognition
are mounted on the flex board at the front of the assembly.
