1.1. System configuration

 

Generally the conveyor synchronization system is configured as follows.

 

 

n Limit switch

This is the device that notifies the controller that the workpiece has entered a specific location on the conveyor. Location of the limit switch becomes the reference point to judge the location of the workpiece on the conveyor.

 

n Encoder

The conveyor driver is connected to the encoder that generates the applicable pulse for the rotation of the motor. And this encoder is connected to the robot controller for the robot controller to read the pulse from the conveyor.
