The sorting process of automatic bottle unscramblers
The sorting process is one of the core and most critical links in its work. In this process, automatic bottle unscramblers use advanced sensor technology and intelligent control systems to detect, identify and sort the incoming bottles, ensuring that the bottles can be accurately positioned and transported to the designated location. Here are the detailed steps of the sorting process:
Sensor detection Before the incoming bottles enter the sorting area, sensors equipped on automatic bottle unscramblers begin to detect the bottles. These sensors can be laser sensors, cameras, photoelectric sensors, etc., used to obtain information such as the shape, size, and direction of the bottle.
Image processing and data analysis The data collected by the sensor is sent to the image processing system for analysis. The image processing system uses advanced image recognition algorithms to process and analyze the characteristics of the bottle, and identify the type, location, status and other information of the bottle.
Sorting decisions Based on data provided by sensors and image processing systems, intelligent control systems make sorting decisions. It determines the optimal sorting position and path for each bottle and communicates this information to the machinery.
Mechanical sorting Once the sorting decision is completed, the mechanical device starts to perform the sorting action. These mechanical devices can be mechanical arms, pneumatic devices, vacuum suction cups, etc., which according to the instructions of the control system, remove the bottles from the messy state in a high-speed and accurate manner and place them in a directed manner at the designated location.
Precise positioning During the sorting process, automatic bottle unscramblers ensure that each bottle is accurately positioned and arranged. This requires precise motion control capabilities of the mechanical device to ensure that bottles do not collide or become misplaced during the sorting process.
Quality inspection and exception handling During the sorting process, automatic bottle unscramblers are usually equipped with quality inspection systems to detect whether bottles have abnormalities or defects. Once an abnormality is detected, the system will immediately take corresponding measures, such as excluding or marking abnormal bottles.
Real-time monitoring and adjustment During the entire sorting process, automatic bottle unscramblers will monitor the operating status of each link in real time and make adjustments and optimizations as needed. Operators can adjust sorting parameters via the control interface to accommodate different types or sizes of bottles, or adjust sorting speed and accuracy.
This bottle feeder requires to manually place the upwards bottles on the turntable, and then the bottle feeding system will automatically and orderly deliver the bottles to the conveyor. It is especially applicable for the production lines with many bottle types and low productivity.
