Flexible, modular workpiece transport can bring valuable extra speed to automated assembly with free pallets. Scalability is also enhanced, while built-in tracking provides traceability data to meet the requirements of demanding industries such as automotive.
Leuze SmartID-Edge controls a network of identification systems and sensors for track-and-trace requirements in production and the supply chain. Secure communication between 1D scanners or 2D camera systems takes place at edge level using OPC UA and full integration of the AutoID Companion Specification. The advantage: Each object to be identified is not only represented by its code but also mapped on a virtual tag in the edge system.
Machines and systems are becoming more and more intelligent – and in many cases more complex as a result. This makes it all the more important that the processes in production are transparent and comprehensible at all times so that the teams in production and maintenance can make the right decisions. This is the only way to exploit the full potential of networked manufacturing environments.
