SAMPLI-SRM-M: MANUAL SENDING STATION FOR METAL SAMPLE TRANSPORT

The station is used to send pneumatic tube containers to a higher-level system.

Sequence description:

  • Input terminal indicates readiness for the input of a transport box.

  • The door is unlocked.

  • A can is inserted and set in the correct direction.
    (Check by optical and inductive sensors) + optional RFID reader/writer checks the can recognition.
