Application of Measuring Light Curtain in Tire Sorting: Accurate and Efficient, Leading Intelligent Manufacturing

In tire sorting applications, two measuring light curtain systems are used to detect the inner and outer diameters of tires. Each measuring light curtain consists of a series of precisely arranged infrared transmitters and receivers that capture tire size data by scanning the tire surface. Every time a tire passes through the light curtain, the light curtain will determine the inner and outer diameters of the tire through the interrupted light beam.

The two sets of light curtains work together. Once the inner and outer diameter data of the tire are accurately measured, the system will convey the tire to the corresponding conveyor belt according to the preset classification standards. If the detected tire size does not meet any specification standards, the system will automatically remove the tire to prevent unqualified products from entering the packaging stage. This real-time detection and automated classification greatly reduces the need for human intervention and ensures the continuity and accuracy of production.

· High-precision detection

The measuring light curtain can quickly and accurately detect the size data of the tire without touching the tire surface, avoiding the wear or error problems caused by traditional mechanical measurement. Through non-contact detection, the light curtain can also effectively avoid tire surface contamination and improve product quality.

Through the automated sorting system, tires can be quickly diverted to different conveyor belts on the production line, reducing the need for manual intervention and greatly improving production efficiency. The high-speed detection of the measuring light curtain ensures the smooth operation of the production line.

The measuring light curtain not only reduces the need for manual inspection, but also prevents unqualified tires from entering the next production or packaging process through precise size screening, thereby reducing the possibility of rework and material waste.

The system automatically identifies tires whose sizes do not meet the specifications and removes them from the production line, ensuring the quality of the final product while optimizing the use of resources.
