Note. The sensor set-up depends on pallet size.
Function description Pre-stop position The Locating station is divided into Pre-stop position and Process position. Process position Pre-stop position The Pre-stop position is relieving the Process position of the queue-pressure. The RFID-reader of the Pre-stop identifies the pallet, affecting the efficiency as pallets with other destination quickly pass the Process position. Process position The Process position receives one pallet at a time from the Pre-stop.

Cylinder details Cylinder A1 ”Pre-stop” Type: Single acting Function: Pressurized: Releases the pallet flow No pressure: Blocks the pallet flow For security reasons, the pallet stop is blocking the flow in case of a pressure drop, preventing pallets from travelling uncontrolled along the conveyor. The stop should not re-block the flow while a pallet puck is in a position where it could be clamped. It is recommended to re-block the flow after each pallet.
Sensor details Sensor B1 ”Pre-stop” Type: Proximity switch, inductive Position: Placed together with Pre-stop. Function: Detects the initiator plate of the pallet before the pallet is stopped and stays active until the pallet leaves the stop. The reason why the pallet is detected by the sensor before the pallet hits the stop, is to enhance the efficiency of the pallet flow. As the pallet is detected in advance, the controller has time to take a decision whether or not the pallet should be stopped.
Sensor details Sensor B3 and B4 ”Locating up/down” Type: Proximity switch, inductive Function: Activated then the pallet is located/released.
