HORAD module label-verification station
Suzhou HORAD New Energy Equipment Co., Ltd. ↗Cylinders align and stop each module, then scanners and a camera check three labels: the front barcode, the frame code and the nameplate.
HORAD lists the three labels, the camera defect types, panel sizes, utilities and machine size. Code types, read grades, position limits, cross-checks between codes, detection rates and data storage are not given. It sits with the testing and inspection stations near the end of the line.
General illustration of testing & inspection equipment, not a photograph of this model. Ask the manufacturer for current photographs and layout drawings of the configuration offered.
START WITH YOUR PRODUCTION TASK
Use it as the gate after labeling. Give HORAD all three layouts with expected values, agree which defects the camera must catch, and run wrong, missing, unreadable and shifted labels through it before you accept.

01 · Manufacturer information
What the scanners and camera look at
Cylinders align the module and a stop holds it in place. Barcode scanners and cameras then read the front barcode, the frame code and the nameplate. The camera also spots a missing nameplate, print defects and labels placed off position.
HORAD does not say whether the three codes are compared with each other or with the production record. No barcode grade, position limit in millimetres or measured catch rate is listed either. Write three separate pass rules into the order: the code reads, the label looks right, and the serial belongs to that module. Modules that pass can then go on to HORAD's grade-driven sorting system, which relies on the same serial being right.

Listed figures for the verification station
| Item | HORAD lists | Pass rule to write |
|---|---|---|
| Labels checked | Front barcode, frame code, nameplate | Your labels, code formats and which codes must match. |
| Camera defects | Presence, print defects, placement deviations | Defect catalogue, limits and the samples behind them. |
| Panel sizes | 1650 × 990–2500 × 1400 mm | Formats you run and whether each label is in camera view. |
| Supply / power / air | AC380 V / 0.5 kW / 0.6–0.8 MPa | Small electrical draw; confirm air use for the stop cylinders. |
| Machine size, L × H × W / weight | 2800 × 1600 × 1200 mm / 0.3 T | Lighting, guarding and access for cleaning optics. |

Build a sample set with known answers
Codes
List symbologies, content, contrast and print rules, and the value each label should hold. Agree what happens on a no-read or a doubtful read.
Label appearance
Collect real examples of missing or torn nameplates, smudged print and shifted labels, measured, so the camera limits rest on samples.
Serial match and logging
If codes must match each other or the production record, say so, along with how pass and fail results are kept. Scanners and a camera on the frame do not set this up by themselves.

Testing each way a label can fail
Freeze labels and rules
Fix the three layouts, code formats, matching rules and defect limits.
Show it bad labels
Run missing, defective and shifted labels on every format and compare each scanner and camera call with the known answer.
Show it wrong serials
If matching is in scope, feed readable but wrong codes, duplicates and codes that disagree with the record. Score these apart from read success.
Lose a result
Force a no-read, drop a result and interrupt a transfer. Check that failed modules are set aside, can be rechecked, and that the first module after any change is inspected.

Questions about label verification
If the barcode reads, is it the right one?
Not necessarily. Catching a wrong serial needs a rule that compares the code with the expected value.
What position tolerance does the camera hold?
HORAD gives no number. Set the allowed label position and how it is measured in the order.
Are results sent to the factory system?
HORAD does not describe a data link. Ask what interface is offered and how long results are kept.
