Robotic Cell Industrial Barcode Inspection
Application: Inspection inside a robotic work cell
Challenges: Stopping robotic machinery is difficult and interrupts production
Solution: Banner Engineering's iVu BCR with Remote Display
Benefits: Remote display can be mounted and operational from outside of the work cell
When possible, robots in work cells should not be interrupted if at all possible in order to maintain the highest possible throughput. If inspections need to be performed within the work cell, such as verifying barcodes on boxes placed on a conveyor by the robot, it's best to maintain control from outside the cell.
Description
Since it can be difficult and expensive to stop robotic operations to configure and monitor the barcode inspection process, it's a good idea to install an iVu BCR barcode reader with remote display.
The remote display can be mounted up to 16 m (50 feet) away from the sensor to enable machine operators to easily configure and remotely monitor or troubleshoot the inspection process while the robot is in operation.
