Product Description

The SICK CSM-WP117A2P (Part No. 1067294) represents a significant advancement in miniature color detection technology. Designed for high-performance industrial automation, this sensor combines a compact form factor with the intelligent capabilities of IO-Link communication. By utilizing an RGB LED light source, the CSM series achieves exceptional color resolution and improved gloss suppression, allowing it to distinguish subtle color variations even on reflective surfaces.

This sensor is engineered for ease of use and rapid integration. While the standard 1-point teach-in method allows for quick setup of a single color via the control panel or cable, the integrated IO-Link interface unlocks advanced functionality, enabling the monitoring and detection of up to eight unique colors. With a high switching frequency of 1.7 kHz and a rapid response time of 300 µs, the CSM-WP117A2P is ideal for high-speed manufacturing environments. Its IP67-rated miniature housing ensures durability in tight installation spaces, providing a smart, cost-effective solution for precise color-based object detection and sorting tasks across various industrial sectors.

 

Key Performance Features

  • High-Speed Processing: 1.7 kHz switching frequency ensures reliable performance in high-speed production lines.
  • Miniature Design: Ultra-compact housing (12 mm x 31.5 mm x 21 mm) allows for installation in extremely restricted spaces.
  • IO-Link Integration: Enables intelligent diagnostics, remote visualization of sensor parameters, and easy format changes.
  • Extended Color Logic: Teaches up to 8 colors via IO-Link, enhancing sorting capabilities compared to standard sensors.
  • Improved Gloss Behavior: Enhanced optical performance reduces false triggers on shiny or glossy materials.
  • Versatile Teach-in: Simple 1-point static teach-in for fast commissioning.

 

Ideal Applications

  • Packaging Industry: Detecting and sorting products based on color-coded packaging or labels.
  • Electronics Production: Identifying and verifying colored components or markings on small electronic parts.
  • Quality Control: Monitoring color consistency in plastic injection molding or automotive interior parts.
  • Print & Labeling: Verification of color marks on continuous webs or individual labels.
  • Assembly Automation: Ensuring correct part orientation or selection in automated pick-and-place systems.
