Honeywell FUTURE-LOOKING WAREHOUSING Instruction Manual

THINKING THE WAY FORWARD: FUTURE-LOOKING WAREHOUSING

Our Experience. Your Advantage.

Warehouse logistics and processes can be complex, so you need a partner who can help you navigate the best solutions for your business. Honeywell forms strategic partnerships with our customers, meaning that you can count on us from our first conversation to final deployment. Our solutions are broad — from force sensors to ensure robotic grippers can safely grasp products to safety cable-pull switches that provide emergency stop signaling along the conveyor line. Featured in this warehouse example are four key pieces of equipment along with the Honeywell solutions that allow them to run reliably and deliver accurate readings.

ARTICULATED ROBOTIC ARMS

Force Sensors – ensure safe grasping or gripping
Board-Mount Pressure Sensors – measure pressure of air or fluid in control lines
Heavy-Duty Pressure Sensors – provide functionality to robotic equipment
Magnetic Position Sensor ICs – help maintain a high level of accuracy and precision
MICRO SWITCH Limit Switches – sense presence of welding rods and provide end-stop detection
MICRO SWITCH Basic Switches – for use in control assemblies and provide end-of-travel and grid-style guidance
Humidity/Temperature Sensors – catch moisture from moving items and provide alerts for extreme environmental conditions
Position Sensors – optimize accuracy and efficiency through highly accurate motion control
MICRO SWITCH Safety Switches – used for perimeter guarding to provide emergency stop protection

ROBOTIC GRIPPERS

Force Sensors – ensure safe grasping or gripping
Board-Mount Pressure Sensors – utilized in robotic gripping technology
Heavy-Duty Pressure Sensors – provide functionality to robotic equipment
Magnetic Position Sensor ICs – allow the robot to automatically adjust its grip and angle to handle irregular objects
MICRO SWITCH Basic Switches – integrated into grippers of the arm wrist to sense grip pressure
Temperature Sensors – provide feedback to the chamber controller to ensure proper temperature levels
Humidity/Temperature Sensors – catch moisture from moving items and provide alerts for extreme environmental conditions
Position Sensors – optimize accuracy and efficiency through highly accurate motion control

INDUCTION SORTER

Force Sensors – ensure safe grasping or gripping
Board-Mount Pressure Sensors – monitor pneumatic pressures to ensure specified operating level
Heavy-Duty Pressure Sensors – provide functionality to robotic equipment
Magnetic Position Sensor ICs – allow the robot to automatically adjust its grip and angle to handle irregular objects
MICRO SWITCH Basic Switches – count packages as they pass on conveyors
Position Sensors – optimize accuracy and efficiency through highly accurate motion control
MICRO SWITCH Safety Switches – used for perimeter guarding to provide emergency stop protection

CONVEYOR SYSTEM

MICRO SWITCH Safety Switches – provide required emergency stop signaling for personal safety protection
MICRO SWITCH Limit Switches – indicate position for system controls and can also count items passing by
MICRO SWITCH Hazardous Location Limit Switches – send an electrical signal to indicate position of equipment and material. Often used for “door plugged”
Heavy-Duty Pressure Sensors – control direction of packages coming down the conveyor
Magnetic Position Sensor ICs – used for motor/fan control, position sensing, linear and angular displacement and speed sensing of moving parts
