The new functions of an operating light, such as an adjustable color temperature and a variable light field diameter, got the test engineers into hot water: they simply could not be verified with conventional measurement technology. Therefore, together with a light measurement specialist, they developed a new test stand including a partially automated measurement process.
Instead of printing the barcode on the packaging, it can also be lasered directly onto the skin of fruit or vegetables. This saves on packaging costs and protects the environment. But to ensure that the peel is not damaged in the process, the focus of the laser must be precise, despite the fact that the individual fruits are always different sizes. A 3D sensor from a company in northern Germany helps with this.
