Part Positioning

Part Positioning is the process of identifying the location of a part then positioning it in the proper place and orientation. This is often done with an analog sensor that is able to measure distance.

Balluff Micropulse Linear Position TransducersBalluff Micropulse Linear Position Transducers

Balluff Micropulse linear position transducers provide highly accurate and reliable position control signals. Balluff's non-contact magnetostrictive technology means performance does not degrade over time, as with linear potentiometers. Micropulse transducers are available with a variety of housing styles and electrical outputs to fit a wide range of applications and are very popular in the lumber industry, plastic injection and blow molding, tire and rubber manufacturing, stamping presses, die casting, and all types of automated machinery where a continuous, absolute position signal is required.

Baumer OHDK14 Background Suppression LasersBaumer OHDK14 Background Suppression Lasers

Diffuse sensors with background or foreground suppression which work with triangulation do not only sense the light reflected from the target, but also sense the distance of the object to the sensor. Within the fully adjustable distance, objects which are at least as big as the diameter of the light beam are recognized independently of color and surface properties.
