Monitoring Flow of Transparent Plastic Bottles on a Conveyor
Application: Monitor conveyor to ensure there are no stuck bottles
Challenges: Sensing field covers a large amount of area
Solution: The Clear Plastic EZ-ARRAY
Benefits: Monitors a larger area than single point sensors
To ensure that when bottles are placed on the conveyor, there is not a downed or stuck bottle in the placement area. This prevents damage to the bottle handling equipment, as well as potential jams further down the conveyor.
Description
Banner’s Clear Plastic EZ-ARRAY is designed to monitor an area of the conveyor that single point sensors cannot. With its polarized technology, discrete outputs can be used as an alarm to notify the bottle handling equipment controls that there is an obstruction on the conveyor. (Models featuring clear plastic technology are designated with “CP” in the model number, for example EA5E150CPQ or EA5R150xxxMODCPQ)
