X85 Pallet
Sensor B1 and B2
Sensor details
Sensor B1 and B2 ”Pre-stop”
Type: Proximity switch, inductive
Position: Placed together with Pre-stop.
Function: Detects the initiator plate of the pallet before the
pallet is stopped and stays active until the pallet leaves
the stop.
The reason why the pallet is detected by the sensor
before the pallet hits the stop, is to enhance the efficiency
of the pallet flow. As the pallet is detected in advance, the
controller has time to take a decision whether or not the
pallet should be stopped. If it should pass, the stop
changes state to ”Release flow” before the pallet reaches
it.
Sensor B3
Sensor B3 ”Sensing pallet route”
Type: Photo eye.
Function: Detects if there is a pallet in the merging area. A
new pallet must not be released from any of the stop
positions before the merging area is clear.
