DOUBLE-SHEET DETECTION: PocketCodr Minimizes Set-Up Cost for Smart-Sensor Double-Sheet Detection
As global demand for pressed-metal panels in the automotive sector increases, suppliers are under increasing pressure to increase productivity and reduce costs. Using ever-thinner gauges of steel and aluminum, double-sheet errors are harder to detect, heightening the risk of tool damage. Contrinex Smart Sensors sense the presence of individual sheets and also detect unwanted double-sheet conditions, triggering an alarm before damage occurs. During set-up, the innovative PocketCodr sensor configurator simplifies every aspect of configuration via the code-free companion app.
Advantages at a glance
- Robust inductive Smart Sensors eliminate avoidable interruptions to production
- Early detection of unwanted double-sheet conditions prevents costly tool damage occurring
- Innovative PocketCodr sensor configurator drives speedy configuration and eliminates avoidable downtime
NUT DETECTION: Smart Sensors and PocketCodr Combine to Eliminate Avoidable Scrap Costs During Nut Detection
In assembly operations, defective parts result in costly production scrap. Commonly, manufacturers use weld nuts to provide threaded mounting points in sheet-metal parts, but without robust sensing systems, missing weld nuts go undetected. Contrinex DMS Inductive Smart Sensors confirm the presence or absence of individual nuts in real time, reliably and repeatably. Using the hand-held PocketCodr configurator, configuring sensors for multiple panel variants is simple, requiring no coding expertise and no detailed knowledge of IO-Link.
Advantages at a glance
- Robust DMS inductive Smart Sensors eliminate costly downstream scrap
- Early detection of incomplete assemblies prevents avoidable interruptions to production
- Hand-held PocketCodr sensor configurator simplifies configuration and minimizes set-up costs
PCB-VARIANT IDENTIFICATION: No-Contact Photoelectric Smart Sensors Identify Industrial PCB Variants in Real Time, Eliminating Downstream Assembly Errors
High-volume assembly operations rely on continuous flow of parts and materials to maintain optimum throughput levels. Multiple variants of individual parts, routed via common feeder lines, require real-time identification to ensure on-time delivery to the correct assembly areas. Industrial-control-equipment manufacturers trust Contrinex no-contact DMS photoelectric Smart Sensors to detect variant-specific components on conveyor-fed PCB assemblies, diverting each PCB to its designated assembly line. Using the no-code PocketCodr sensor configurator to teach multiple detection setpoints minimizes set-up time and associated commissioning costs.
Advantages at a glance
- No-contact DMS photoelectric Smart Sensors eliminate costly downstream assembly errors
- In-line identification of multiple PCB variants supports continuous-flow production and reduces inventory costs
- No-code PocketCodr sensor configurator teaches detection setpoints using live targets, minimizing set-up and commissioning costs
