Plasmac for glue dispenser machine.

I see. Im trying to avoid this step in the process, make it less time consuming was a possible and compact too L800xW1000xH600mm so i can put inside the car...
In this video they have 2 separeted places and its get bigger for my plans...if possible something don’t stop or stop just for replacement of covers

By hand they have one person to clean up the excess of glue in the gasket, brcause the glue isn’t applied uniformly and sometime dont have glue in some places in the path just at the leak test they can found it.

Sorry guys im slow, so the THC or another type of height control while working isn’t possible or if possible can you please appoint the direction so i can try learn it.

I need install Linuxcnc, at first i tried using VM but no way for real time kernel i learned after attempting it (or juat using buildbot isn’t possible) i will install ASAP into real machine to see the HAL stuff

You can use a THCAD in a hypersensing mode but it cannot be uses to detect the height in real time like while plasma cutting because it uses the plasma arc to determine the torch height above the cut.

Maybe try setting up the hypersensing like a 3d printer BL touch probe. The other option is a vision system but I do not know enough about vision control..yet!

If i saw right you are glueing on metal. As a distance probe you could use inductive sensors.
2 tiny ones to make old fashioned 2 point regulation = too high / to low. (fidely mecanical wise, but with 4mm sensors eventually possible.

Or analog distance if you find affordable.

Than make normal xyz machine. On the z axis use external-offset to adapt hight by your inductive measure equipment. Should be easy if you can probe near to your noozle.

You can also use a proximity sensor for probing as they can sense the material without actually touching it.
There is a component written by a member of this forum used for probing and levelling a 3D printer bed, that could be very useful, but i could not find it.

Sorry guys for late reply and thank you for the inputs.

vision system could wok with height i consult some companies and its very expensive for my pocket now, i have one used from Keyence i brought to learn just US$150 the package including the camera and lens, control and PLC.
The model CV-X480D cost US$ 18.000 and can handle the height pretty well but i dont have knowledge yet o integrate. The keyence you select the robot maker and is done, support all big players and you can use custom setting too.
Other companies like Yamaha want you buy all their stuff (PLC, Robot, Vision, Software etc) and at the end is very costly and you are lock up with one vendor, every company use their own language to setup the robot...
if i buy from keyence the engineer told they will help to integrate and they asked the Linuxcnc intarface and many questions and i cant answer so i told next time and thanks, if you are looking for vision talk with Keyence staff, im no one but if you have company you can get the vision system for sample even the power supply to test and they send engineer team to you place to help integrate without additional cost.
the other companies i checked isnt that friendly. maybe Cognex if i have companies they are more receptive...but keyence even im no one they talked and told can help me. i checked ROS but too much too learn now so ill go simple.

Thanks, ill try
I will open my thread in show your stuff, im finishing search for parts and i pretend start drawing all this week.
thank you very much guys
