Reliable cell presence detection in battery assembly

BOS photoelectric proximity switches for precise detection and smooth automation

In battery assembly, especially in the production of modules using cell-to-pack technology, the precise detection of the presence of individual battery cells is crucial for a smooth and automated assembly process. Our BOS photoelectric proximity switches reliably detect the presence of cells, regardless of the surface, color or material of the cells. This ensures high process reliability and efficiency in robot-assisted production lines.

Features

  • Various ranges available for different assembly requirements
  • Precise object detection even with a very close background
  • Detection independent of the surface, color or material of the cells, making them versatile in use
  • Almost constant scanning range even with different degrees of reflection
