Which Sensor Is Used in Packaging Machines?
Which sensor is used in packaging machines? Because packaging machines are used in many industries, including food and beverages, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, etc. Different packaging machines are used in different fields, so the sensors used are also different. The commonly used sensors are:
Temperature SensorsLinear & Rotary TransducersPressure Transducers and SwitchesLoad Cells
Each sensor works differently. Let's take the filling machine as an example:
The filling machine will use sensors to count the bottles as they enter the filling area. The sensor ensures that the correct number of bottles are filled and no bottles are lost during a cycle. Some fillers may use sensors to help refill storage tanks. When the sensor detects a low level, it communicates with the pump to deliver more product to the tank. There are many other ways to use sensors on filling machines. But generally speaking, on this machine, sensors are used to send signals to start or stop functions. In this way, they help keep fill cycles consistent,...
