Checker 200 Series Product Overview

CONFIDENTIAL

• Detects “presence” of a part– Recognizes an actual feature on the part

•Inspects features on the part– Inspects multiple features

•Fast and Deterministic • Simple to use!

Checker is an Inspection Sensor

CONFIDENTIAL

Checker overcomes the problems of traditional sensors•Checker Detects Parts

– By recognizing an actual feature on the part

•Checker Inspects Parts that other sensors can’t inspect

– Date codes, threads

•Checker Inspects Multiple features on a part•Checker does not require precise part handling

– Checker finds and tracks the part

CONFIDENTIAL

Checker is Simple•Designed for the first time user – no training or prior experience required

•Checker has simple to use inspection sensors designed to detect presence of features

•Checker produces simple, reliably timed pass/fail outputs

CONFIDENTIAL

•Requiring multiple photoelectric sensors

•When photoelectrics aren’t reliable

•When the part isn’t precisely fixtured

•For detecting patterns

•Requiring job changeover

Checker solves presence sensing applications

What Does Checker Do?

1. Finds Parts2. Inspects Parts

CONFIDENTIAL

Find My Part

In this example,

Checker’s Part Finding

Sensor is looking for a

the apple on a

juicebox

Checker reliably detects parts because it looks for an actual feature of the part

The outer area is where Checker looks for the apple.

Since Checker can look in an area, it does not

need precise part handling

CONFIDENTIAL

Finding the Part

Finding a part by understandingwhat it looks like

CONFIDENTIAL

Find My Part

The meter indicates how well the Part Finding

Sensor matched the pattern. Above the threshold

means the part is detected, and below means not

detected

Part InspectionChecker’s Inspection Sensors are designed to look and feel like photoelectric sensors

Above the threshold,

the sensor PASSES

Below the threshold,

the sensor FAILS

CONFIDENTIAL

Checker Tracks and Inspects

No needfor precisepart handling

When Checker’s Part Finding Sensor recognizes the apple, Checker places the inspection sensors in the right place to inspect the features of the part

Checker 200 Series Models

•Checker 201– Detection and Inspection– Encoder Input

•Checker 202– Includes everything in Checker 201, plus Ladder Logic

• Adds simple to use ladder logic for custom configuration of inspection sensors

•Ladder logic provides flexibility to solve many more applications:

– Sorting– Applications that need an “OR”

• Part is good if a label is on top OR on bottom

– Tie inspection sensors directly to outputs

CONFIDENTIAL

Bad Part Example:

“Code Fail” Coil is true

Custom Ladder Logic ResultsGood Part Example:

CONFIDENTIAL

Run Time Monitoring•You can see what Checker sees while it is inspecting

Choose which images to display

Choose which images will make Checker’s display freeze

CONFIDENTIAL

Run Time Monitoring

•Monitor tab shows status

of each I/O point

•Statistics tab shows runtime pass/fail counts

CONFIDENTIAL

Run Time Monitoring•Monitor the status of each user-defined output

CONFIDENTIAL

Run Time Recordings

You can record images while Checker is inspecting

Record the standard results, or results created in logic

Checker can record images of passing or failing parts so you can review your process with actual images from the production line.
