I. Main Functions of Industrial Cameras Guidance and Positioning Function: Precisely identifies an object’s location and orientation, providing coordinates for robots or motion systems to enable precise picking, placing, or alignment. Example: Guiding a robot to pick parts from a moving conveyor. Identification and Sorting Function: Reads and verifies text, barcodes, QR codes, or sorts objects based […]

Under What Circumstances Should a Parting/Separating Structure Be Added to a Vibratory Bowl? A parting or separating structure is typically added to solve specific part-handling challenges: Parts Tend to Overlap or Stack Symptom: Flat or sheet-like parts stack on top of each other on the track. Solution: Add flipper blades, air jets, or steps to knock down […]

  Classified by Actuation Method Single-Acting Cylinders Principle: Air pressure drives in one direction (extend), and a spring (or external force) returns it. Characteristics: Simple, low air consumption. Uneven force, limited stroke. Double-Acting Cylinders Principle: Air pressure drives both extension and retraction. Characteristics: High, controllable force. Standard, most common type. Classified by Function & Special Structure Rodless Cylinders […]

Classified by Measured Property Position/Displacement Sensors: Detect presence, position, or distance. Force/Pressure Sensors: Measure force, weight, or torque. Vision Sensors: Capture images for identification, inspection, etc. Temperature Sensors: Measure temperature. Flow Sensors: Measure gas/liquid flow rate. Level Sensors: Detect liquid level in a tank. Classified by Working Principle Photoelectric Sensors: Use light (blocked or reflected […]

The connection forms a control loop: the PLC commands the bowl, and sensors provide feedback. Hardware Connection Power Connection Description: The bowl requires a power source. This is controlled indirectly via a relay. Wiring: Connect bowl power to the relay’s output contacts. Connect one side of the relay coil to a DC power supply. Connect the other […]

Significantly Reduces Friction Description: Coatings like Teflon create an extremely smooth, low-friction surface. Benefits: Parts slide more easily, reducing resistance and potentially increasing feed speed. Helps prevent lightweight parts from stalling due to high friction. Effectively Prevents Part Scratching Description: The coating forms a protective, softer layer between the metal track and the parts. Benefits: […]

When Part Orientation is Extremely Complex or Mechanically Unreliable Scenario: The differences between front/back sides or specific angles are very subtle, or the shape is highly irregular. Traditional mechanical tooling cannot achieve near-100% correct orientation. Solution: The camera can precisely identify subtle features and trigger a mechanism to reorient the part. When 100% Online Quality […]

Variable Voltage (Variac) Controller This is the most basic and economical type. Working Principle: Uses a knob to adjust the output voltage to the electromagnet, thereby varying the amplitude of vibration. Characteristics: Pros: Simple, low cost, easy to use. Cons: Only controls amplitude, not frequency; offers limited control over feed stability. Appearance: Typically features a single large […]

“Riveting Machine” is a broad term that typically refers to the following main types, each with its specific focus: Blind Rivet Guns – For One-Sided Riveting Description: Uses pull-through (pop) rivets. Operation is from one side of the workpiece. The mandrel is pulled, causing the rivet body to expand and clamp the materials. Primary Uses: […]
