Koşul
A roller conveyor transports toothed wheels to a processing station. There, a gripper lifts the workpieces into the machine tool. Important: The gripper must not move before the workpiece has come to the correct position.

Geri dönüşüm
The optical distance sensor efector pmd (order no. O1D100) detects the position of the workpiece to the nearest millimetre. The gripper is activated when the toothed wheel has been precisely positioned.

Müşteriye sağladığı yararlar
This solution is inexpensive, reliable and flexible. Because simple parameter setting of the sensor enables the reliable detection of different workpieces without design changes to the system.
