Simple part tracking and detection

Cognex Corporation announced Checker 101E, a new model in the Checker

family of sensors. Checker sensors use patterns to detect and inspect parts, and it directly accepts encoder signals, eliminating the need for a PLC when

tracking and rejecting parts on variable speed production lines. Acquiring and processing over 500 images per second, Checker is able to detect and inspect

parts on the fastest production lines. If inspection is not required, Checker can be used to detect and track parts or webs for improved process control.

Checker’s stepby-step setup makes it simple for anyone on the factory floor to deploy.
