The power in the wind, Identification of
permanent sensor bolts using Cognex DataMan 100 |
| |
 Cognex
Corporation: Larger and larger wind power turbines are bringing the
forces of nature under control. The main structures, the powerful tower
and rotors, are supported by parts that play a less obvious, but no less
important role: bolts. As simple as it may look, precision tightening of
bolts is an art form of its own. Intellifast GmbH is now ensuring
perfect support in any weather using ultrasound permanent sensors and
Data Matrix codes. At first glance, all bolts look the same. But, when
measured by ultrasound, each bolt reveals its individual inner life and
a characteristic surface. It may only be in the µ range, but no two
bolts are exactly the same in shape or length. Scattered friction values
in the thread and under the head make it a real challenge to tighten
bolts with precision. As a result, tightening factors of 1.8 to 2.0
(twice the maximum force actually required for pre-tension) are
generally used for torque-controlled assembly for safety precautions. ... |

Smart camera for fast codes |
| |
 The
reading of quickly moving labels is a big and frequent challenge
encountered by smart cameras in practical applications. The new LSIS
422i from Leuze electronic reliably masters this task and offers
all of the advantages of the LSIS 400 series, such as the practical
Web-based configuration with a standard browser. The LSIS 422i smart
camera simultaneously reads up to 99 2D Data Matrix codes or barcodes on
each image. As a result, it can be used anywhere various labels need to
be detected and evaluated at high speed. Both the very short exposure
time of just 54 µs as well as the device software contribute decisively
to the performance. The user can, for example, read even inverse 2D
codes. He can also adjust the sensitivity to the given application and
specify quality criteria that must be maintained. In this way, the LSIS

Laser Marking and Image-based Industrial
ID Reader Save Hundreds of Thousands of Dollars |
| |
|
Cognex
Corporation: An electronics manufacturer produces thousands of
different part numbers of high value electronic products intermixed on
the same assembly line. The large number of different products built on
the line, coupled with the fact that many of the parts that distinguish
these products are so similar, made it difficult for assemblers to
verify that they were assembling the products correctly. The difficulty
in identifying parts, combined with the fast pace of the assembly line,
resulted in a large amount of assemblies that required rework or had to
be scrapped. The electronics manufacturer previously experienced several
hundred thousand dollars a year in losses when incorrect parts were
added to, and/or the wrong operations were performed, on assemblies. An
additional issue was the inability to easily track the WIP inventory
which resulted in large amounts of money tied up in raw materials in
process. The manufacturer asked Claire Lasers and several other laser
identification system suppliers ... |

Barcode reader with integrated PROFINET |
| |
|
The
BCL 548i from Leuze electronic is the world's first barcode
reader with integrated PROFINET. It is thus capable of being operated
directly in PROFINET networks. Furthermore, thanks to integrated switch
technology, the BCL 548i can also be used in a line network structure.
This minimizes cabling requirements and offers a high level of
transparency and flexibility. Simple start-up and operation. With the
integrated PROFINET interface, the device can be directly connected to a
control. As a result, the usual path via an additional gateway is
eliminated. Moreover, with the integrated PROFINET interface, the user
can easily operate the device via the control. The device is configured
by selecting modules directly in the control and then transferring them
from the control directly to the device. Should it be necessary to swap
out a device, the configuration is automatically taken over by the new
device. By means of the integrated switch function of the BCL 548i,
additional devices can be connected to one another in the PROFINET in a
line structure, as is typical for fieldbuses. ... |

Labelling
always means precision work at maximum speed. Conventional optical fork
frame light barriers fail where transparent labels, printed with metal
particle lacquers, are to be detected on transparent backing films. The
new ELTROTEC ultrasonic fork frame light barrier FA 98 ULTRA has
been developed to meet exactly these demands and is working at a
precision rate of 100% when triggering labelling machines. With its rim
width of 3mm and a fork depth of 70 mm it can be applied for various
labels and, due to its depth, even reaches significant trigger points
located further on the inside of a carrier material. High repeatability
is ensured with a switching frequency of 1 KHz and the simple adjustment
of rims and gaps via teach-in. Because of ultrasonic principle there are
no effects of extraneous light on the sensor. Also available from
ELTROTEC are optical forks of identical type with a breadth of 12 mm,
rim width of 3 and 5 mm and a switching frequency of 10 KHz of the FA 98
S series as well as capacitive label sensors for all label types with up

With
its comprehensive sensor technologies portfolio for laboratory
automation, Baumer offers sensors for presence detection,
position verification, level measurement, or object and code
identification. Test tubes and microwell plates are often tagged with
encoding, such as bar codes. Baumer Smart Vision solutions allow for
different encoding types to be detected safely and also offer a
character recognition function (OCR). The code identification can be
combined with a crosscheck against other relevant specifications. This
feature increases the efficiency by allowing several inspection tasks to
be easily and flexibly performed in one step. When working with
microwell plates, highest precision is everything. The new Series 09
ultrasonic sensors conduct non-contact and cross-contamination-free

the LRD6110 does not use changes in contrast for operation. The sensor
works equally well with standard labels and clear-on-clear labels
without the need for “eye-marks.” The setup procedure is slightly
different than a photo-eye. To aid customers in getting the highest
performance and quickest setup time, Lion Precision now offers a Video
TechNote on their web site providing a clear explanation of the concepts
and techniques used in adjusting the sensor. “While the sensor is quiet
easy to setup thanks to the light bar display, nothing makes
instructions clearer than video,” according Mark Kretschmar,
communication manager for the company. Other video TechNotes are
available. More setup videos are planned for other sensors. Lion
Precision manufactures the world’s leading clear-label sensors with

fixed-mount ID readers can now simultaneously read up to 128 codes in a
single field of view—even with mixed code types—opening up many new
application possibilities. “Many manufacturers continue to use a
traditional 1D barcode label for the product ID, but have added a
direct-marked 2D code to store the serial number, batch number, and date
and lot code. They want to read both codes simultaneously for tracking
and tracing products through their manufacturing process, and our new
multicode feature is perfect for them,” said Carl Gerst, Cognex ID
Reader Business Unit Manager. “Others want to read codes on multiple

ID Readers save assembly time and improve
tracking of surgical instruments |
| |
|
Cognex
Corporation: Assembling accurate sets of instruments for the many
different types of surgery performed in a typical hospital is a
time-consuming and difficult manual task at most hospitals. Technicians
in the central sterile department typically wash instruments,
re-assemble them into sets based on pick lists provided by surgeons, and
sterilise them so they are ready for the next day’s surgery. The problem
is that when surgeons open the kit the next day instruments may be
missing and it may be necessary to delay surgery while technicians race
around looking for them. Censis has developed a software product called
Censitrac that allows hospitals to set up surgical set pick lists and
then ensures that the correct instruments are loaded into surgical sets.
A 2D Data Matrix barcode is electrochemically applied to each instrument
and this barcode is scanned during the assembly process to ensure
accurate set assembly and track the location of every instrument. It’s
very difficult to read a barcode on the shiny surface of a surgical
instrument. Censis went through five different generations of ID readers ... |

The
new LSIS 120 series from Leuze electronic combines barcode and
2D-code reading in a highly efficient and industrial-suited manner.
Until now, different systems were usually necessary for reading barcodes
and 2D codes. These times have passed for automated handling and testing
systems, robot systems and analysis automation. With the LSIS 120, Leuze
electronic has brought a code reader to market that can reliably read
one-dimensional barcodes, as well as 2D codes. The LSIS 120 (with either
RS-232 or USB interface) operates with fixed focus and a large depth of
field. Both types are characterised by a large reading field with
precise, wide-angle optics. Short read distances are also possible. All
common barcodes and 2D codes are read omnidirectionally—they do not need
to be arranged in a specific direction. The LSIS 120 enables continuous
traceability of parts with code labels, from the raw producer to the end
consumer, as is increasingly required for circuit boards, tools, food
and in the automotive industry. Another area of use is manual reading,
where the code is held under a fixed reader. This considerably
accelerates processes at ... |
