Multiproduct Light-Guided Assembly Station

The versatile PTL110 Series pick-to-light device reduces the number of errors, expedites build time, and makes training simple and easy

Assembly of multiple parts at one station can be a very effective way to build components for various models, but it also presents many challenges that must be addressed before accurate assembly and high throughput is possible. Continue reading to learn how Banner Engineering’s versatile PTL110 Series pick-to-light devices can be used for error proofing and guidance during part assembly.

Guided Part Assembly

Errors can be very common when parts are manually assembled and there is a demand for a variety of different parts. Similar components and hard-to-follow instructions may lead to human error during production which then slows down the entire process and introduces defects. Using pick-to-light sensors at multiproduct assembly stations lessens the number of inaccuracies, speeds up build time, and makes training simple and easy.

Your Benefits

  • More efficient assembly processes because of reduced errors and increased speed
  • Fast and easy training procedures due to a color-based system
  • Simple connectivity and many application possibilities

  • Banner’s PTL110 pick-to-light devices illuminate and display a number when a certain item is needed

  • Users have full control of fourteen colors and multiple animation functions

Versatile Pick-to-Lights with PICK-IQ™

Banner’s PTL110 Series is an incredibly versatile and fast pick-to-light device that is a great fit for light-guided assembly applications. Minimizing errors during assembly procedures is crucial for companies to keep production levels high and reduce the amount of downtime. Without proper guidance during pick sequences, an operator can easily grab from the wrong location and install incorrect components. The bright and easy-to-see digital displays on the PTL110 devices, combined with an optical sensor that detects hands as they pick pieces, simplifies the build of parts and ensures a high level of quality assurance at multiproduct assembly work stations.

When a specific part is needed, the corresponding PTL110 Series pick-to-light device will illuminate and display a number. The employee will grab the amount of parts needed for the installation from the correct bin. When their hand breaks the beam, a pick is recognized, and the indicator light switches off so that the next pick in the sequence can light up, alerting the employee of the following action. Using the the illuminated pick sequence as a guide reduces the chances of a worker grabbing the wrong parts or quantities.

Banner’s PTL pick-to-light devices also have PICK-IQ™, an enhanced serial communication that quickly indicates the next bin, allowing the system to keep up with the operator.

The fast speed and unique versatility of PTL110 devices have the capability to turn each station into a multiproduct assembly station for even more production efficiency. One employee can conveniently work on different pieces at the same station. Using a color-based assembly makes training fast and easy, allowing operators to quickly switch between BOMs and increase the overall throughput. The simple connectivity and brackets make the PTLs easy to move without additional tools or reprogramming.
