Features

5. Students can learn the entire process of

    testing station

5. The system is universal, industry based,

    modular and flexible

Specification/Technical data

5. The testing station detects the materials, color, air tight and height of work pieces
5. All basics types of industrial sensor like optical, inductive and capacitive sensors are contained in the station
5. A slide double-acting air cylinder raises the work piece to the pre-set position and then a parallel rod double-acting air cylinder moves the analogue measuring module to measure its height
5. After being measured, the incurrent work pieces are rejected and sent to the discard chute by a double-acting air cylinder
6. The correct one is sending to the next station by the vacuum suction cup
