PLOK - machine for orienting, optical inspection and packing of plastic parts
A machine that orients plastic parts, optically inspects them from all six sides and automatically packs the OK parts into boxes at the outfeed.
Six imaged surfaces before the packing decision
An AFAG bowl feeder orients the plastic parts and passes them to a linear feeder, where a stopper releases them one by one to optical inspection. The first Baumer camera on Profinet, with blue LED lighting suited to plastic parts, images the top surface, after which a pneumatic rotary transfer unit places the part on a rotary table driven by a Nanotec motor.
On the rotary table, the second Baumer camera images the remaining side surfaces through rotation steps, so that every part is optically inspected from all six sides. Based on the result, the Siemens S7-1200 PLC activates the blower for OK or NOK parts and counts the parts in the three output boxes, which are changed automatically when the cycle is full.
Interface and control logic
A standard operator interface: an HMI panel with physical start/stop buttons below it and an emergency stop button - the same control station operators know from other ENSO machines. An RGB signal tower shows operators the machine status from a distance.
