Application of rope displacement sensor on drum conveyor
The function of the rope displacement sensor is:
1. Continuous monitoring of the position of the large plate workpiece: During the roller conveyor and lateral movement of the metal fixture plate, the moving distance is continuously read, and the system knows the current coordinates of the plate in real time. It connects the front and rear processes (transmission, detection, positioning) to achieve synchronous operation of the assembly line;
2. Safety protection: When reaching the limit position, stop the machine directly and sound an alarm to prevent the cylinder from hitting the top and the slide table from exceeding the travel limit and damaging the frame/drum; Compared to mechanical hard limit, it reduces mechanical impact losses and lowers equipment failure rates;
3. Quality control: The sensor accurately controls the lateral pushing and lifting displacement, ensuring that the correction position of each board is completely consistent, eliminating manual adjustment errors, and improving the yield of finished products.
The rope displacement sensor is a sophisticated integration of linear displacement sensors in terms of structure, fully combining the advantages of angle sensors and linear displacement sensors. It has become an excellent sensor with compact structure, long measurement stroke, small installation space size, and high precision measurement.
According to its working principle, it can be divided into potentiometer principle and magnetic induction principle. WPS rope displacement sensors have complete specifications and a variety of different external dimensions to choose from, which can meet the vast majority of installation scenarios; There is a waterproof rope displacement sensor that can be used in deep water, with a protection level of up to IP68; There are waterproof and explosion-proof rope displacement sensors, all of which have obtained professional explosion-proof certificates. It also meets various types of output signals, including analog signals RS485、 Pulse signals are widely used in railway, tunnel, shipbuilding, machinery, construction, medical, bridge laying, dam construction, automotive, aerospace and other mechanical equipment, as well as detection and monitoring industries.
