Sensors are the perception organs of RGV robots, which ensure the efficient, accurate, and safe operation by real-time monitoring of vehicle position, speed, obstacles, and cargo status. Significantly improved the automation level, operational efficiency, and safety of the three-dimensional warehouse, while reducing the need for manual intervention and the risk of malfunctions.What sensors can be applied to the RGV robots from Tianjin G-TEK Sensor?

1. Photoelectric sensors (universal optical sensors)

Position detection: used to detect whether the shuttle has reached the shelf, track end, or specific workstation, ensuring accurate parking.

Obstacle detection: prevent collision with shelves, other equipment or personnel, trigger emergency stop.

Goods presence detection: Confirm whether there are goods on the fork or cargo platform to avoid empty load or miss-operation.

Such as G-TEK PF21B series photoelectric sensors. 
 

Product features:
(1)Several detection distance 5mm-900mm, 10mm-4000mm,50mm-4000mm
(2) Diffuse reflection, laser TOF background suppression type
(3) Laser light source technology with auxiliary visible spot
(4) Anti environmental light and anti cross-talk.
(5)Black and white detection without distance attenuation

2. Proximity sensors (inductive sensors, capacitive sensors)

Metal object detection: Identify metal markers on the track (such as station markings) to assist in positioning.
Fork alignment detection: Ensure precise alignment between the fork and the cargo compartment to prevent collisions during storage and retrieval of goods.
