Ian Manley, National IT Manager of FDM, confirms the success of a new ASC installation at FDM Eastern Creek.
The application: Bar Code Scanner Tunnel 5 Sided Inspection for Barcode Labels Previously, the Laser based system was labour intensive due to its’ inaccuracy. Failed reads then went to a Manual sorting system. The ASC / Cognex solution upgraded the hardware from redundant Laser to modern Camera Technology. ASC provided a more ergonomic design footprint whilst retaining a significant portion of the original framework. This resulted in cost savings and better utilisation of essential warehousing floor space. ASC designed a Cognex featured integration that was seamless with Metter Toledo Weight Scaler and 3D Dimensioner. Automation Systems and Controls Cognex solution future proofed for FDM with the inclusion of image saving and 2D scanning Post testing results saw no rejected reads with an over 99% read rate, equating to a significant 3% read rate improvement.
