Function
Teach function
1)
– Teaching new parts without programming
– Saving the features of the taught par ts type
Quality inspection
2)
– Testing the quality, e.g. with pivoted parts and milling parts
– Machine-sorting of incorrect and foreign par t s
Position test (nominal orientation)
– Position-controlled transfer of the good parts to the following machine
– Return of incorrectly oriented good parts to the small par ts conveyor
A check of the position and of the buffer zone can be made at the same time.
Buffer zone check
Monitoring the buffer zone with one sensor.
If the buffer zone is full: return of the good parts to the small parts conveyor.
If the conveyed parts form a jam on the buffer zone for a long period, the small parts conveyor will be
switched off.
Buffer zone check with switching hysteresis
3)
– Monitoring of the buffer zone with two sensors for delayed switching of the small part s conveyor
(hysteresis).
Good part counting with preselected number of items
3)
A continuously running c ounter ascertains the sum of all good parts
– Supplying of defined amounts of components through specification of a target number for good
parts.
1)
Via the PLC interfac e: Selection of a maximum of 16 parts types if system parameter “Number of
buffer zone sensors = 1”, “External signal input activated= no”. Factory setting, can be set with
CheckKon
2)
Extended quality inspection with CheckOpti (as from version 2.1)
3)
The system parameters must be activated or set in CheckKon
