This machine performs final
inspection on an electromechanical device.
The machine throughput is a minimum of 30
parts per minute or 14,400 parts in one
8-hour shift.
PLC controlled,
using AS-i bus communications, a pallet
conveyor system transfers the devices
through the machine.
Automated machine
on a manufacturing assembly line for an
electromechanical device. Multiple stations,
30 ppm.
The machine is the final machine
on a manufacturing assembly line. A conveyor
is used on the line to transfer the devices
from one machine to the next, as well as
the through the multiple stations within
the machine. If a fault is found with one
of the devices, it is sent down the bypass
conveyor for further inspection. Otherwise,
the device passes through for packaging.
The machine is controlled by a PLC and all
communications on the assembly line as well
as between all the machine components are
through an AS-i bus.
