The robot will track the workpiece and can carry out the conveying/arranging operation without stopping the conveyor. There are two types of conveyor tracking.
Sensor tracking
Sensor tracking is used when picking up workpieces conveyed in a straight line at arbitrary intervals. It adopts the way that the signal will be triggered when the workpiece passes through the front of the photoelectric sensor. The position of the workpiece when it passes through the front of the photoelectric sensor is registered in advance, and the position of the workpiece every time the trigger signal is received is calculated in turn, which is then tracked by the robot.
Visual tracking
Use visual tracking when picking up conveyed workpieces placed in any position/posture.
When the visual sensor detects the workpiece through image recognition, it will trigger the signal.
Log in the position/posture of the workpiece detected by image recognition every time the trigger signal is received, and calculate the position of the workpiece in turn, and hand it over to the robot for tracking.
