About this product
5.2.1 Rack, work piece detection station
The rack station consists of a table with lockable guide rollers and the following
function modules assembled on top of it:
 2 separating racks
 Conveyor belt
 Sensors for materials testing
 Picking unit
 Machine control panel
 Maintenance unit
 Electrical supply with signal processing
– Main switch on left-hand side of the system
– Connector to right-hand/left-hand station
– Mains supply, fuses
– 3 emergency stop relays
– Profibus coupler
 Programmable logic controller XLC L25 with supplied PLC software
Two separation racks offer space for 10 work pieces each. The placement status
is monitored by microswitches. A pneumatic cylinder pushes the bottom most
workpiece in the stack onto a conveyor that runs it past four test stations.
One optical, capacitative and inductive sensor each acquires the material
properties with a pneumatic cylinder acquiring the contour. The test result
is saved in the controller. A work piece can be removed from the conveyor belt
by means of a pneumatic cylinder. At the end of the conveyor, a sensor is used
to determine that a work piece has arrived and to stop the conveyor.
