Used along secondary packaging conveyors to count and verify the presence of shiny poly-wrapped or foil-lined boxes at rates of up to 500 Hz.
The integrated polarization filter prevents false reflections from high-gloss materials, ensuring accurate counts without double-triggering.
Mounted on automated storage and retrieval systems (ASRS) operating inside refrigerated or cold warehouses to verify the position of tote bins.
The broad temperature rating down to -40 °C ensures reliable operation in deep-freeze environments, avoiding the standard sensor failures caused by extreme cold.
Positioned above automotive stamping and assembly cells to detect polished metallic sheet parts or painted chassis on carrier skids.
Provides robust immunity to high-intensity factory ambient light up to 10,000 Lux and ensures fast 1 ms response times to match automated robotic speeds.
