Reliable Differentiation of Gears

The Task

In automated gearbox production, various types of gears are used. Since the supplier does not package them by type, the gears must be differentiated when picked up by the robot.

The Challenge

The gears appear visually identical—differing only by tooth count (26 vs. 27). Accurate detection is further complicated by the uneven backgrounds of the trays in which they are placed.

Our Solution 

The VISOR® Robotic vision sensor provides the flexibility required to reliably distinguish between gears. With its wide range of detectors, it can determine the exact position of each gear and differentiate between types—all with a single device.
Thanks to its high computing power, the VISOR® can detect and evaluate multiple objects simultaneously in just milliseconds.

Your Advantages 

  • User-friendly system with a wide range of functions available at the touch of a button
  • VISOR® variants available to meet different application requirements
  • VISOR® software offers easy-to-use detectors for precise position control
  • High computing performance for fast, reliable evaluation within milliseconds
