• Expansion of the VMS6200 volume measurement system with a reading station and
weighing station.
• Depending on the application, the reading station can consist of scanners, cameras
and/or a combination of both in any desired arrangement.
• Allows automated object identification using bar codes.
• Streamlines process automation.
• The weighing station consists of a dynamic scale.
• It determine the weight of the passing object.
• The weight, together with the bar code and the calculated volume, are transmitted for
the purpose of controlling the goods and material flow.
• The devices are connected to the volume measurement system via the MSC800
system controller.
• The controller links the acquired identification and weight data with the dimensional
values calculated by the VMS6200.
• The identification and weight data as well as the dimensional values are sent together
to the higher-level system.
