The just released Checker 200 series models from Cognex are designed to be as simple to set up as the Checker 101, but much more capable and small enough to fit almost anywhere. Eliminating hassles associated with wiring and precisely mounting multiple photoelectric sensors, the series is targeted at food, beverage, and consumer product package inspection and automotive and electronics part inspection.
The Checker 200 series inspection sensors offer built-in lighting, variable working distance, and high-speed inspection capability at rates faster than 6000 parts per minute. Even on the fastest production lines, Checker can inspect multiple part features and deliver reliable, precisely timed, pass/fail results.
The inspection sensors have a rugged IP67 housing and quick disconnect cables, as well as encoder-based part tracking, I/O and high-speed USB connectivity. The Checker 200 series includes the Checker 201 which is ideal for part finding and inspection, and the Checker 202 which includes all the features of the 201, plus ladder logic for custom configurations.
