Hey andy Yep your right
Nah there is no inspection happening on this machine ideally it will just crank away working And the machine will sort a few million chips a year so worth while to get good sensors. Pretty cool machine I get to build. Nice change from Linuxcnc retrofits for local machine shops and running a machine shop with all Linuxcnc gear. I'm buying directly with omron atm and they are very helpful. And I guess I just have to pay up. I need 4 separate sensors but total cost should be about 1500nzd which is OK if there are no cheaper options and it gives trouble free operation.
