With the help of the powerful LED lighting, the smart runners are able to take pictures for documenting errors, process conditions and quality features. The integrated data matrix decoder allows users to easily parameterize the sensor using data matrix control codes without using a PC. The detection results are provided by the light section sensors as good or bad signals at switching outputs, which can be processed by any control system.

Recognize and check

The Smart Runner "Matcher" and the Smart Runner "Detector" are available as the first representatives of the device family. The matcher is optimized for recognizing a previously learned reference contour. Typical tasks include B. the highly precise checking of the position and correctness of objects, for example to verify the tangibility of body parts with the robot.

The Smart-Runner Detector, on the other hand, monitors the learned scene for the penetration of foreign bodies that can pose a danger to sensitive machine parts such as expensive optics, precision tools, etc. In a trapezoidal measuring range 350 mm wide and 700 mm deep, it detects objects with high precision, optionally down to the size range of 1 mm.

Areas of application for the smart runners are numerous, among others in the automotive industry and everywhere in plant and mechanical engineering. (jv)
