Hi guys,
I've an enquiry from our mechanical department to help source out a kind of sensor that is able to detect & count the nuts in a nuts packing machine.
The nuts has varies diameter from 5mm to 20mm, falling from a vibrator bowl, one at a time.
I can't use a beam sensor as it might count as two when the nuts hole falls thru the beam.
Number of nuts will be set at the HMI.
Has anyone see this kind of counting machine & have any idea what type of sensor are they using for counting?
Thanks for your information.
