Object and Distance Control of Cobots Using Ultrasonic Distance Sensors

In the packaging industry, collaborative robots take over the automatic gripping and transfer of cartons between pallets and conveyor systems. An ultrasonic sensor in miniature design is mounted directly on the gripper to reliably detect the distance to cardboard boxes and to be able to grip them precisely. The sensor detects objects and measures distances to workpieces or obstacles in the range of up to three meters, regardless of shape, color or changing light conditions. Thanks to its compact size and low weight, it has no influence on the dynamics of the robot.

Ultrasonic Distance Sensors

Distance sensors are suitable for the detection, differentiation and measurement of objects by means of ultrasound. Different operating modes, such as synchronous, multiplex or through beam mode, can be set via the display or centrally via IO-Link, and different output variants and designs enable a wide range of possible applications.
