2. Automated Conveyor Part Counting
Using the sensor on a miniaturized conveyor or vibratory bowl feeder to accurately count small opaque parts passing through the 5mm sensing slot.
Problem SolvedAddresses the challenge of reliably detecting and counting miniature, fast-moving components without physical contact, utilizing the 0.025 mm differential distance and high-speed infrared detection to prevent miscounts.
