Precise object detection on conveyor belts

The picture shows a reflex sensor with background suppression looking at a conveyor belt and detecting objects.

Conveyor belts are a central element in industrial automation. They transport products continuously through the various process steps. Precise detection of the objects is necessary for downstream stations to work reliably. Products with shiny or colored surfaces that are in motion and have to be detected against changing backgrounds are particularly challenging. The challenge of […]
