Positioning of trays on a loader/unloader

To enable the robot to accurately perform its gripping operations and avoid collisions with the components, the trays are positioned highly precisely on a loader/unloader with the help of a W4SL-3 miniature photoelectric sensor with reflector. The precise laser light spot of the photoelectric sensor ensures a highly accurate switching behavior.
