How can brass shafts be reliably detected?

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?

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.
Which type of light is the right one for my optical button?

Which type of light is suitable for which sensor application? Find out when red light, blue light, infrared, laser or ToF sensors are the best choice – for dark objects, long distances or difficult surfaces.
Where can I find the user manual for the customer-specific variants OPT1543S01 and OPT1543S02?

In practice, customer-specific sensor variants often raise questions about the appropriate documentation. The article explains why a separate operating manual is not required for the OPT1543S01 and OPT1543S02 variants, what content is covered by the existing OPT1543 documentation and how the variants differ specifically in terms of delivery status and default settings.
Reliably capture black stickers on a light 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 object detection over long distances: P1PH9 reflex sensor from wenglor

The P1PH9 reflex sensor from wenglor reliably detects objects over long distances. Thanks to time-of-flight technology, IO-Link and high interference immunity, it offers precise results even in difficult lighting conditions – ideal for assembly, logistics and automated production.
Protrusion control in automated handling for robot gripper systems

Sensor-based protrusion monitoring for robot gripping systems: How light curtains and reflex sensors with background suppression reliably detect protrusions from material stacks and flexibly support automation solutions.
Precise sensor technology for secondary packaging

wenglor shows how sensor solutions reliably detect cartons, boxes and transparent objects in secondary packaging and thus ensure process reliability.
Reliable thread detection with reflex sensors

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?

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.
