ONE SOLUTION FOR ALL CROSSORTERS

Per year around 150-200 LPD’s to be added

Solution cost price targetted at 2.500 Euro

Feaseability showed vision technology too expensive

− around 18-20KEuro cost price

Proof of Concept with Sick Inspector camera was succesfull

− High-speed part inspection in VGA resolution (640 x 480)

− Ethernet IP connectivity

− part cost price 500 euro

− disadvantage light needed for contrast

Slide 13,

VI SOLUTION - LOW PRODUCT DETECTION

Slide 14,

Slide 15,

Slide 16,

•Camera is triggered by contrast differences with respect to crossbelt

• Dark, non-reflecting products will not be detected

• Best detection position is in the middle of crossbelt

• Red Laser light is used for contrast detection

•Normal PEC is always leading, LPD detection is therefore only for products;

•<8mm (SCS700)

•<10mm (SCS1500)

•Low products only single cell loading

•Otherwise two products will be detected

LOW PRODUCT DETECTION EXPLAINED

Slide 17,

Slide 18,

OUR OBJECTIVE WITH THE CURRENT LPD

The LPD function is to detect objects which cannot be detected

by a standard PEC.

Slide 19,

Local controls design

•Local controller handles

masking of space in between

crossbelts

LOW PRODUCT DETECTION DESIGN

Blind spot

• At each side of the belt 30mm blind spot where

products will not be detected by LPD

• So 85% of SCS700 and 88% of SCS1500 belt is

within detection window

Slide 20,

OUR CHALLENGES…

(current solution) Improved detection of beginning and end of

carrier belt

(next solution) Detection of products also between carriers

To consider

− installation and configuration (no expert level)

− serviceabiltiy and diagnostic (no expert level)

− international rollout (robuustness)

− lifetime of carrier belt and polution (robuustness)

− diagnostic (in case of increasing probability of failures (proactive))
