Xerox iGen 4
• Commercial printer
• 110 ppm
• 200,000 - 3,750,000 pages per month
• 4,800 x 600 resolution
• Modular Design

Problem Statement/Need
• Bad stacks can cause job integrity issues and lead to stacks falling over
• We recognize the need to design a sensor that detects stack quality
![Page 5: Xerox Project](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062423/568144a4550346895db169f4/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Stacks
• Makes paper easier to handle
• Organizes customer projects
Good Stacks
Bad Stacks

Customer Needs
• Detect bad stacks within a tolerance of 5mm
• Design a sensor for the iGen4
![Page 7: Xerox Project](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062423/568144a4550346895db169f4/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Laser
• Position detection laser
• Detects an interruption in the stack
• 3 sensors to measure each axis
![Page 8: Xerox Project](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062423/568144a4550346895db169f4/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Pressure Sensor
• Detects variations in the weight distribution of the paper
• If stacks are aligned properly, each sensor will be the same
![Page 9: Xerox Project](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062423/568144a4550346895db169f4/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Optical Sensor
• Uses a camera and optical recognition to detect paper placement
• Placed above the paper
![Page 10: Xerox Project](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062423/568144a4550346895db169f4/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Infrared Motion Detector
• Uses infrared light to detect variance from a perfect stack
• Similar to Laser
![Page 11: Xerox Project](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062423/568144a4550346895db169f4/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Criteria
• Cost
• Complexity
• Ease of Installation
• Upkeep

Design Selection + Analysis
• Our best idea was the infrared sensor
• Best score in all criteria
• 3 infrared detectors for each axis
![Page 14: Xerox Project](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062423/568144a4550346895db169f4/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Summary
• Final choice is Infrared Sensor
• Technology already in use and easy to implement in the iGen4
• Best choice
