Part Presentation How is the target being presented to the camera? Speed Consistency in positioning

Cycle Time - Indexed INDEXED Indexed Motion = Start – Stop – Start - Stop Needed information Measured in parts per minute or parts per second Typically slower that continuous motion Index speed

Needed Information Cycle Time - Indexed INDEXED Index speed = 100 part per Minute 1 minute 100 parts 60 seconds X 100 parts 60 seconds = = = part s seconds 0.60 seconds per part

Cycle Time - Continuous C O N T I N U O U S Continuous = Constant speed Needed information Measured in meters per second, meters per minute, centimeters per minute, centimeters per second Part speed Part spacing (leading edge to leading edge)

Cycle Time - Continuous C O N T I N U O U S 0.25 meters 1 meter 1 part 1 second X 1 part 0.25 seconds = = = part seconds 0.25 seconds per part Needed Information Part speed = 1 meter per second Part spacing = 0.25 meters

Part Presentation Tolerance X Y Z Effects FOV size May need Location Tools X, Y and Movement Z Movement Limited by Focal Depth Effects measurement perspective Focal Length = Focal Depth

Best Bad and Worst Good Best Bad Part barely fails expectations Worst Good Part barely passes expectations

Describes the parts that Pass and Fail Look for the pain point Avoid application creep Manage expectations The customer saying I want the part to look like this is too subjective

Camera Trigger and Part Rejection Part Rejection Method How do you plan to eject part? Solenoid Indicator Light PLC input Camera Triggering Source How are you going to tell the camera to capture and image? Photo eye Proximity sensor Encoder PLC HMI Push button This can effect your target presentation tolerance
