Material Handling

The material handling machine example (photo left) is an in-line engine assembly machine for a major motor manufacturer where various components are fed to the machine for their correct position through light sensitive tubes. When the four components are in the correct position, they are moved in an assembly jig to their correct location in the engine block and are inserted. Their location and correct depth in the engine block are inspected by probes. Incorrect positioning sounds an alarm and stops the assembly line.
