Hello, first time posting here
I'm looking to do a project for my 2nd yr exams and its a conveyor belt system that detects different size boxes as they pass by on the belt
Depending on the size of the box which is to be determined by a sensor, it will activate a solenoid to a pneumatic cylinder to push the box off the conveyor into a collection box
I need to find a sensor that works on a light beam breaking when the boxes of various sizes pass through
the sensors will be mounted on a bracket off the side of the conveyor
I'll be using this site
If anyone could help thanks
