Hello everyone,
I'm working on an application that requires the accurate measurement of a cube of bricks as the cube is being built. I'm thinking about using a light curtain array to determine the top of the last layer stacked. The scanner would interface with a plc that would supply a robot with a set-point for the next layer. I'm not at all sure about what type of signal I would need from this system, but I'm thinking along the lines of some type of analog.
Now, to the point of this post. Who are some of the manufactures of light curtain scanners. What type of interface would work between the scanning system and the plc? Any idea of the cost?
Thanks to all who take the time to read this.
