With the deep change and technological innovation of warehousing and logistics industry, various automation equipment emerge in an endless stream, making the design of logistics automation projects unique. However, in the midst of these many changes, continuous conveyor equipment has always been a core component of every internal logistics project, playing an irreplaceable role. Whether it is a roller conveyor or a chain conveyor, its efficient and stable operation is inseparable from accurate and intelligent sensor selection. Today, Xiao Yi will give you an in-depth analysis of the characteristic sensor applications and selection points on the continuous transmission line.

5SHX1060H0003 The space detection of pallet conveying line is the key link to ensure the efficient and safe operation of logistics system. Sensitive and reliable sensors are required for pallet cargo transmission. This kind of sensor can monitor the position status of the pallet on the conveying line in real time, effectively prevent the conveying stagnation or efficiency reduction caused by the pallet blockage or no-load, and ensure the smooth and seamless conveying process.

Pallet inspection for roller and chain conveyors

5SHX1060H0003 In the complex environment of diverse pallets, the precise selection and application of sensors is particularly critical. In terms of pallet size and profile detection, the light curtain sensor has played an excellent advantage, which can capture the pallet size and profile information through the conveying line in real time, effectively prevent the problems such as the stuttering and damage of the conveying equipment caused by the pallet being too large or too small, thereby greatly improving the 5SHX1060H0003 stability of the warehousing logistics system and effectively guaranteeing the smooth progress of the overall logistics automation operation.

The safety protection of the separation area of people and goods can not be ignored. For safe operation in compact Spaces, it is important to select a safety sensor for use around the continuous transmission line. Such sensors usually have rapid response and accurate identification capabilities, which can trigger an alarm or stop the operation of the conveying equipment immediately when the personnel are near the dangerous area, so as to effectively prevent the occurrence of safety accidents and build a comprehensive and intelligent safety protection scheme.
