O6 Photoelectric sensors: Applications

Applications

Carton detection on a packaging line. Accurate detection of boxes on a packaging line is critical to avoid conveyor jams and to maximize process efficiency.

The background suppression method used in the O6 series eliminates any interference from the conveyor background. The sensing range is independent of box color, so no adjustment is necessary when package colors or materials change.

 

 

Palletizer vacuum table position detection. Suction tables are used on palletizer and depalletizer applications to move and stack packages and sensors confirm the presence of the packages. False trips and misdetections all slow down cycle time, affecting the availability of the equipment.

The O6 sensors provide reliable detection in industrial automation environments and the bright visible red light source and precise spot enables easy alignment and quick setup.
