Ejection of foodstuff with defective labeling

Actuator
ERC2-RGDS6C
Controller
ERC2 Controller
- A vision sensor is used to inspect the printing of the date printed on the lid of a cup of food

- If defects are found in the printing, the ROBO Cylinder® is used to push the product and discharge it from the conveyor

- This was previously done manually

By introducing this system:

- Productivity has improved

- Conveyor speed can be increased

- Labor costs have been reduced

- Defects were eliminated

- The ROBO Cylinder® actuator was chosen, instead of an air cylinder to discharge the defective products, due to its “energy conservation” and “ease of programming” characteristics
