Photoelectric Proximity Sensors
Photoelectric Proximity Sensors, whether they diffuse, retro-reflective or through-beam, incorporate a light emitter and a receiver. In all but through beam types, the emitter and receiver are housed in a single sensor unit
Photoelectric Proximity Sensor Applications
Typical Applications for Photoelectric Proximity Sensors and Switches include:
- Counting and monitoring over longer distances e.g. conveyor, packaging and handling systems.
- Bottling and canning plants.
- Food making.
- Sorting by height detection.
- Controlling doors, gates and corridors.
- WITH FIBRES; Counting, checking and sorting of small objects.
- Controlling and monitoring assembly operations, In areas with low/high temperatures or in the vicinity of very strong electromagnetic fields.
