Automation studio B&R PLC ST programming PART 13 - WHILE .....DO LOOP for finding highest value.

Image
 While do loop is used continuously monitor a condition, if the condition is fulfilled the statement insdie the loop is executed. Otherwise it will jump out of loop. In  tutorial the while is continuously monitoring the Array J[i] which is having integer value, and displaying the largest value.

Photoelectric sensor Tutorial







Explanation:-






We would be having a quick review for Photoelectric sensor Types and application

we would be covering below Basic Photoelectric sensors:-

  1. Diffuse/ proximity Sensor - Miniature , Fiber optic & laser sensor. 
  2. Retroreflective Sensor - Miniature , Fiber optic & laser sensor.
  3. Thru Beam Sensor - Miniature , Fiber optic & laser sensor.
  4. Eye mark or color mark sensor.
  5. Color sensor.                                                                                                               
  6. Luminescence / UV Sensor.                                                                                                    
  7. Safety Curtain sensor


Photoelectric Sensor uses Light for detection of Objects. red light is most widely used, other than red light  blue, green light are also used.

Red light are mostly used because they cannot be tampered by any other light easily.

Light reflected/Diffused from object is received at receiver due to which sensor detects object. They are most widely used for high speed application in machine packaging / filling or processing line. they are used in pharma, beverages, Material handling and Automobile industry.

1. Diffuse / proximity Photoelectric Sensor


                                

   

There are 3 basic types in diffuse types

  • Miniature
  • Fiber optic
  • Laser 
As the object comes in front of sensor light is reflected back to receiver, due to which product is detected.
Miniature sensor uses visible red, blue, green or Infrared light for detection.
Laser sensor has light range as compared to miniature or fiber optic. In case of fiber optic has less range due to which product has to be kept near sensor. Fiber optic sensor used an amplifier to set sensor range and other parameters.

Diffuse sensor can be used for below applications:-




2. Retroreflective Photoelectric sensor



 

Retroreflective sensor uses an additional reflector to sense object.

There are 3 basic types in Retro reflective types

  • Miniature
  • Fiber optic
  • Laser 

Retroreflective sensor has more accuracy than diffuse sensor, as reflector is been used. If any object is coming between reflector and sensor object is detected.

Retroreflective sensor can be used for below applications:-


3. Thru beam sensor


  Thru beam sensor has separate Transmitter & receiver. If any object is coming between Trans & receiver the object would be detected.

Thru beam sensor has more accuracy than Diffuse or retroreflective sensor


There are 3 basic types in diffuse types

  • Miniature
  • Fiber optic
  • Laser 

Thru beam sensor can be used for below application



 4. Eye Mark / Color mark / Contrast Sensor


 Mark sensor are used for detection of mark / registration mark. They can only differentiate between 2 colors and generate output.

5. Color sensor


 Color sensor can detect all different color objects in VIBGYOR and generate individual output.

They are also called as color RGB sensor. Used for registration mark and Color sorting machine.


6. Luminescence /  UV sensor



This sensor are specifically used for detection of luminescent objects or mark. They are used for hologram or UV coated labels. They can also be used to detect carton shiny tamper labels.

7. Safety curtain sensor



 Safety curtain sensor is used to safeguard operator in hazardous machining environment. They are designed for safety purposes. they consist of array of sensor light. If any light is been blocked sensor generate output signal.

They are also used for object Height and Width measurement.
