Checking presence in the robot gripper
The robot gripper grabs finished cast parts at the sprue and removes them from the die cast. The W2S-2 miniature photoelectric sensor monitors the presence of gripped cast parts and sends a start signal to the robot control so that the robot can remove the die cast part. With its PinPoint LED, the photoelectric sensor provides a highly visible light spot, which makes it easier to align the sensor on the gripper and also enables the precise detection of the cast parts.
