Use
Reject a bottle that is lying down or upside down from the conveyor.

 

Description
Bottle down verification
• Only rejects lying down bottles, not upside down bottles.
• Consists of a detour of the straight path on the conveyor by means of a custom engineered guide.
• The guide is placed such that the height of a lying down bottle is lower than the bottom of the guide.
• The detour provides a centripetal force to the bottle which, if lying down, exits the conveyor under the guide.

Bottle down and upside down bottle verification
• Three photo-eyes (one trigger for bottle presence, one for lying down bottle sensing, and the other for upside down bottle sensing) verify the right orientation of the product.
