Equipment: XRay Machine
 |
|
Description
The XRay Machine component is used to set the screening result of products travelling on transporting equipment (typically conveyors). When a product travels through the XRay Machine, the product receives a screening by the machine (Level 1 screening).
If the screening is Rejected, and Level 2 Screening Operators are enabled, the product will receive a Level 2 status or a Timeout Status if the screening operator didn’t complete the Level 2 screening before the XRay timeout.
Creation
From the Toolbox, simply drag and drop a XRay Machine into the simulation.
Access
In Project Explorer, click on Equipments > XRay Machine. Or simply click on the XRay machine in the simulation.
Properties
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Connections/Source | Name of the conveyor or transporting equipment where the XRay Machine reads from. |
| Connections/Source Distance | The distance along the Source component where the screening occurs. |
| Length | Length of the XRay Machine. |
| Width | Width of the XRay Machine. |
| Height | Height of the XRay Machine. |
| Reject Rate (%) | Percentage of rejected products at Level 1. |
| Last Screening Result | True if the last screening product was Cleared, False if rejected. |
| Operator Timeout | Maximum time allowed for Level 2 operator (if any) to provide a screening result. The XRay will set the Level 2 screening result to “Timeout”. If no Level 2 operator are enabled, alls products will be either cleared or rejected (no timeout). |
| Min/Mean/Max Screening Time (seconds) | Specify the time taken to deliver the Level 1 result (normal distribution with minimum, maximum and mean parameters). |
| Last Screening Time (seconds) | Time taken to deliver the screening result of the last product screened. |
