This light section sensor is optimized for high-precision monitoring, detecting even the smallest of faults. The focus of the Detector is on protecting expensive components and increasing machine availability. It detects even the smallest unauthorized parts, overlapping, and overhangs. The Detector reliably identifies objects with a minimum size of 0.25 mm in a trapeze-shaped measuring range with a width of 350 mm at a maximum range of 700 mm. Since the SmartRunner Detector evaluates both the laser line on the object as well as the background, the sensor results are always reliable.
The integrated camera also makes it possible to record images in order to document the complete process and assure top quality control. The recorded error images can be uploaded remotely, preventing trips to the factory floor and allowing easy monitoring of difficult-to-access machine areas. The high-performance LEDs supply consistent, brightly-lit images. Parameterization through Data Matrix control codes is also possible.
