Description

Objectives

• Recognition of different materials (sensors)
• Mechanical construction of a testing station
• Programming a test procedure
• Mechanical construction of a swing converter
• Programming of a swing converter
• Mechanical construction of a sorting system with three magazines
• Programming of a sorting system with three magazines

Design
The setup includes two models:

• Gravitiy feed magazin with testing unit: Workpieces are provided seperatly by a gravity feed magazine. The filling level and the workingpiece in tray is supervised with photo sensors and micro switches.The material property of workpieces is checked with optical and inductiv sensors.
• Storage depot with 3 Stacks: The working pieces are moved from a "Pick and Place elec. with vacuum gripper" and can be stored in three different magazines

Method

The device is designed for student experiments. Practical exercises require that the learner resolve the controller or system problem with their own programming and using mechanical configurations. The basics of SPC programming and a understanding of production processes are required prior knowledge.
