What are the advantages of Pepperl+Fuchs photoelectric sensors

Different photoelectric sensors have different advantages. Today, I will mainly introduce the advantages of Pepperl+Fuchs photoelectric sensors!

1. Easy to adjust

In the type of projected visible light, the projected light beam is visible to the eyes, which facilitates the adjustment of the position of the detection object.

2. Achievable color discrimination

The reflectance and absorptivity of the light formed by the detection object differ according to the combination of the wavelength of the light projected and the color of the detection object. Using this property, the color of the detected object can be detected.

3. It can realize non-contact detection

The detection can be achieved without mechanically touching the detection object, so it will not cause damage to the detection object and the sensor. Therefore, the sensor can be used for a long time.

4. High resolution

High-resolution can be achieved by concentrating the light beam on a small spot through advanced design technology, or by forming a special light-receiving optical system. It can also detect small objects and high-precision position detection.

5. Short response time

The light itself is high-speed, and the circuit of the sensor is composed of electronic parts, so no mechanical working time is included, and the response time is very short.

6. Less restrictions on detection objects

Because the detection principle is based on the shading and reflection caused by the detection object, it can detect almost all objects such as glass, plastic, wood, liquid, etc., unlike proximity sensors, etc., which limit the detection object to metal.

7. Long detection distance

If the detection distance of 10m or more is reserved in the through-beam type, other detection methods (magnetic, ultrasonic, etc.) can be achieved without detection.
