Miniature photoelectric sensors minimize costly interventions due to underfilled cartons.
In the food processing industry, consumer products require secondary packaging before the final dispatch. During confectionary production, individual bags of candy travel by conveyor from bagging stations to a pick-and-place packing robot for secondary packaging into a carton. The carton then proceeds to the labeling area.
Ideally, product flow along the conveyor is continuous. In practice, interruptions occur from time to time when bagging machines require attention. In such cases, when bags stop arriving at the secondary-packaging station, the plant-wide control system should pause the operation of the pick-and-place robot. However, alerting the control system to pause the pick-and-place robot is challenging.
Read this application brief from Molex to learn how miniature diffuse-mode photoelectric sensors from the Contrinex C23 Series are ideal for secondary-packaging applications.
