How can brass shafts be reliably detected?

Compact reflex sensors for reliable detection of brass waves with blue light, red light or laser

For the reliable detection of brass waves between 4 and 32 mm, wenglor offers compact reflex sensors with blue light, laser or red light. Precise, contactless and flexibly parameterizable – ideal for highly reflective surfaces and limited installation space.

What technologies are used in reflex sensors?

Overview of different reflex sensor technologies: triangulation, time-of-flight and energetic sensors

Reflex sensors detect objects without contact and provide precise switching signals. Depending on the application, triangulation sensors, time-of-flight or energetic reflex sensors are used – for high precision, flexibility and robustness in industrial automation.

Reliably capture black stickers on a light background

An energetic reflex sensor detects a black surface in front of a very bright background.

Reliably detecting black stickers on a light background often poses physical challenges for standard sensors. The article shows how energetic reflex sensors of the P1KT series detect even highly absorbent surfaces through the targeted evaluation of the amount of light (remission) – and thus offer a cost-efficient, flexibly integrable solution for contrast detection in mechanical engineering.

Reliable thread detection with reflex sensors

Laser reflex sensor P1MH202 precisely detects the presence of threads in metal workpieces during quality inspection.

The P1MH202 reflex sensors with background suppression reliably detect threads up to M6 regardless of color, surface and degree of gloss. A precise solution for automated inspection processes in production.

How can black crates be detected on conveyor lines?

Reflex sensors with background suppression reliably and accurately detect black plastic crates on a conveyor vehicle.

Detect black boxes reliably: The P1KH019 and P1MH202 reflex sensors from wenglor reliably detect even light-absorbing objects – thanks to blue light and background suppression, even in tight installation situations.
