Double-Sheet Detection Case | Preventing Overlap in Robotic Feeding for a Zhuhai Appliance Manufacturer

Project Background

This project addresses robotic feeding overlap in home appliance body stamping. To protect expensive and complex molds, it is essential that robotic feeders supply single sheets during feeding.

Project Objective

Objective: Prevent robotic gripper from picking double sheets and damaging molds.

Solution

This solution equips the customer with Atonm Single-Sensor Metal Double-Sheet Detector MDSC-8000. When the robot arm places the sheet within the detector range, the detector is moved into position for detection to protect it from collisions during feeding. If a single-sheet signal is detected the robot proceeds; if a double-sheet signal is detected, the robot returns the sheet for re-pick.

Atonm Double-Sheet Detector MDSC-8000 is developed to prevent double-feed in robotic feeders for automotive and other industries, using a high-power single-sensor design to detect single or double sheets with one probe.
