Target Applications

Carton Height Measurement

Objective:
To accurately measure the height of parcels passing on a conveyor

Description:
When triggered by an opposed mode pair of sensors, an array of L-GAGE LT3 sensors accurately determines the height of boxes passing on a conveyor below the array. The array measures individual boxes as well as the first box in a tote carrying several boxes.

Carton Width Measurement

Objective:
To sense boxes anywhere across the width of a roller conveyor, when sensing is only possible from under the conveyor

Description:
The optics of the S18 fixed-field sensor are ideal for sensing from below a conveyor. Excess gain is very high at the optimum sensing distance of about 25 mm, but is low at the lens. As a result, moderate amounts of dirt and dust falling on the lens don't affect sensor performance.
