Product Description

The SICK 1062199, part of the KTM Prime series, is a high-performance miniature contrast sensor designed to excel in demanding industrial environments where space is limited. Utilizing a sophisticated RGB three-color LED light source, the sensor automatically selects the ideal transmission color (Red, Green, or Blue) to provide the highest contrast resolution between a mark and its background. This ensures stable detection even on glossy, multi-colored, or low-contrast materials.

The KTM-WP11181P features a vertical light spot and a high switching frequency of 15 kHz, making it perfectly suited for high-speed production and packaging lines. Its 32 µs response time ensures that registration marks are captured with millisecond precision. Setup is simplified through a user-friendly 2-point teach-in button—supporting both static and dynamic teach-in modes—or via an external control signal. Housed in a compact, IP67-rated enclosure (12 mm x 31.5 mm x 21 mm), this sensor offers a reliable, space-saving solution for modern automated machinery that requires rigorous registration and positioning accuracy.

Key Performance Features

RGB Technology: Automatically chooses the optimal light color for maximum contrast reliability across various material types.
High Switching Frequency: 15 kHz frequency allows for the detection of marks at extremely high web speeds.
Ultra-Fast Response: A 32 µs response time and 15 µs jitter ensure precise positioning and minimal error.
Flexible Teach-In: Features 2-point static/dynamic teach-in and “proximity to mark” adjustment for easy commissioning.
Compact Design: Miniature housing allows for seamless integration into tight machine spaces without sacrificing performance.
Industrial Durability: IP67 enclosure rating provides protection against dust and water ingress in harsh factory conditions.

Ideal Applications

Packaging Industry: Accurate detection of print and registration marks on foil, plastic, and paper.
Labeling Machines: Precise positioning and alignment of labels on bottles, containers, and boxes.
Printing Processes: Monitoring of web tension and cutting marks in high-speed printing presses.
Food & Beverage: Reliable detection of marks on multi-colored or reflective food packaging.
Pharmaceuticals: Verification of product coding and safety seals on medical packaging.
