| Location : | China and Mexico |
|---|---|
| Inspection Lines : | 15 |
| Part Size & Shape : | .3in x .5 in. to 1.75 in. |
| Number of Part Types : | 45 Per Line |
| Materials Handling : | Pneumatic Walking Beam (by Istech) |
| Inspection Parameters: | All elements present, contact true position, Contact Gap, Overall part dimension |
Description of Process:
Parts are transferred by an operator from the assembly track to the vision inspection track. As
the parts are conveyed in front of a photo eye, the system activates the walking beam
and moves the part automatically through inspection. The camera station consists of a
section made of glass track which is necessary to back light the connector. The walking
beam passes the part under the camera and two images are snapped while in motion,
eliminating the need for accurate positioning.
The inspection insures that:
- All components are present
- All contacts are in proper position
- The overall dimensions of the part are correct
The inspection is accomplished in approximately 30 ms. If the part is found not to be acceptable, it is automatically removed from the track into a rejection bin. If the part is found to be acceptable, it is passed to a Packaging Station.
