WESTCAM-Counting system
Precise detection and automatic counting of small objects regardless of shape and material.
How do you pick and pack small parts? Do you weigh, estimate or count manually? How long does it take you and how accurate are you?
There is an easier way: with the WESTCAM-Counting system
Your parts are as individual as the solutions for automating the counting and picking process. Tell us about your processes and variety of parts. We would be happy to advise you on the options for fully automated counting of small parts.
At high speed, components in their complex variety of shapes are reliably recorded and automatically counted:
- Our reference in the dental industry counts up to 8 small parts/second/individual module – depending on size and complexity and > 20,000 small parts per hour/module.
- With an accuracy of > 99 % from a filling quantity of 1,000 pieces
This might also interest you:
- Control of the system via touch panel and display of metering results
- Downstream sorting process for “mixed production”
- Part separation and automatic speed control
- Purely electric drives (no compressed air required)
Are you still weighing or are you already counting?
The two different functions:
– Picking:
Small parts are counted up to an adjustable value. The counting chute then stops the flow. Typical application: Counting and dispensing a defined number of parts from a larger quantity.
Optionally with connected packaging system and automated labeling.
– Count through:
Small parts filled in are counted through completely. Typical application: Counting parts during stocktaking.
Frequently asked questions (FAQs)
Was sind die Vorteile einer Zählanlage für Kleinteile in der Produktion?
Due to the variance in the specific weights of the same components, the “counting by weighing” process results in unwanted deviations in the picked quantity. As a result, weighing processes need to be replaced by counting processes.
Our Counting system enables us to increase efficiency and accuracy. Automated counting processes reduce the risk of counting errors, save time and costs and thus support production and supply chain processes.
Wie schnell kann die Zählanlage zählen?
Components in their complex variety of shapes are reliably recorded and automatically counted at high speed. Depending on the separation characteristics of the components, > 20,000 small parts per hour/module can be counted with an accuracy of > 99 % from a filling quantity of 1,000 pieces.
