Function description
Locating modules are components for positioning pallets in preparation for 
operations such as assembly, machining or testing. 
The pallets are stopped by a pneumatically controlled stop device near the 
desired position. A proximity switch is used to indicate that a pallet is in the 
locating station. A locating cross wedge is activated to one side of the pallet 
lifting the pallet against a V-ruler on the opposite side of the pallet. The lo-
cating accuracy is within +/-0,1 mm.
The location module is delivered complete with conveyor beam, guide rails 
and guide rail brackets for M12 sensors, for installation into a conveyor line. 
The sensor for pallet in locating position is always included but other sen-
sors, supports and RFID readers are optional. 
Excluded parts:
•
Chain
•
Slide rails for chain and guide rails
•
Tubes for pneumatic circuit
•
Pallets
•
Cables (for sensors and RFID r/w head)
The locating station is divided into Pre-stop position and Process position.
Pre-stop position
At the pre-stop position pallets are stopped if the process position is occu-
pied. The RFID-reader at the pre-stop can by identifying the pallets in-
crease the efficiency by letting those with an other destination pass quickly.
Process position
The process position receives one pallet at the time from the pre-stop. If the 
pallet should be processed, it is caught by the integrated stop. Once it is 
located the process will start.
