Clamp machine

PROJECT: Needed specifications:
Be able to bring 2 items in the same time, from a position to an other one with high precision.

Chosen solutions:
An electrical cylinder is used to move two mechanical probes into the assembly. If the specific parts are present, then they come into contact with the probes. This contact induces the move of a ring which is detected by an inductive sensor.

SKILLS:
Non-presence had to be detected in 100% of cases – No error accepted /
Designing small and settable components to allow detection of very small parts of the assembly /
Inductive sensor using /
Electrical cylinder using /
Required precision calculation /
