Long-Range Inspection in Automotive Assembly
Challenge
Proper installation of vehicle components is crucial in such a demanding industry. To prevent costly downtime and assembly errors, a solution is needed that can detect the presence and position of a car seat on an automotive assembly line.
Solution
As vehicles move forward on an automotive assembly line, an L-GAGE LT7 time-of-flight laser sensor is directed inside the sun roof to verify that the car seat has been installed and is in the correct position. It is offered in retroreflective models with two discrete outputs (PNP) for extremely long ranges up to 250 m, making it a versatile sensor in the automotive industry.
