The SICK WT100L-E1141 is a high-performance laser photoelectric proximity sensor built for precise and fast object detection in automated systems. It operates with visible red laser light (650 nm), ensuring accurate recognition of even very small or fast-moving targets within a 0–400 mm range. The sensor’s compact rectangular body (11 × 31 × 20 mm) makes it easy to install in confined spaces. With Class 1 laser safety, IP65 protection, and a durable ABS/PC/POM housing, it provides stable performance and long service life, helping production lines maintain quality and efficiency under demanding industrial conditions.
Engineered for precision tasks, the WT100L-E1141 delivers quick response times and consistent detection results, even on low-contrast or reflective surfaces. Its narrow 2 mm laser spot and 2 kHz switching frequency enable reliable operation in high-speed applications such as robotic positioning, part counting, or packaging inspection. The 270° potentiometer allows easy sensitivity adjustment, while light/dark switching increases adaptability across different materials. Its low power draw and stainless-steel mounting bracket enhance reliability and simplify installation. This sensor supports higher process accuracy, reduces false detections, and improves automation system efficiency.

1. Micro-Part Detection in Electronics Manufacturing
During electronic assembly, identifying tiny parts such as resistors, connectors, or microchips is a demanding task. The SICK WT100L-E1141 solves this by using a finely focused laser beam that distinguishes even the smallest components. Its rapid 0.25 ms response ensures instant detection for robotic pick-and-place operations. Compact in size and easy to align, it reduces misplacement errors and inspection delays, helping manufacturers achieve higher throughput and consistent assembly quality.
2. Film and Label Alignment in Packaging Lines
Packaging machinery often struggles with detecting glossy or transparent materials like wrapping film or adhesive labels. The WT100L-E1141 delivers reliable performance thanks to its visible red laser and adjustable sensitivity. It precisely tracks film edges and label positions at high conveyor speeds, ensuring accurate sealing and label placement. This minimizes wasted materials, improves process timing, and enhances product presentation on high-volume packaging systems.
3. Counting and Verification in Conveyor Systems
In logistics or component sorting, maintaining accurate counts of fast-moving items is critical. The WT100L-E1141 captures every passing object with its 2 kHz switching frequency, unaffected by variations in color or surface texture. Its light/dark mode selector allows quick adaptation to different materials, avoiding false readings. Integrated into automated conveyors, it ensures precise quantity tracking, reducing manual checks and streamlining overall production flow.
4. Edge and Position Detection for Robotic Tasks
Robotic arms used in assembly or material handling require dependable reference points for alignment. The WT100L-E1141 provides millimeter-level detection accuracy using its narrow laser spot and 270° sensitivity adjustment. It identifies part edges and height variations even on complex surfaces. Resistant to dust and vibration, it maintains reliability in tough industrial environments, helping robots operate smoothly, shorten cycle times, and improve placement precision.
