The Applications
1. Stable Object Detection on Extended Conveyor Systems
In large factories and logistics facilities, conveyor lines can span long distances where reflected signals weaken and detection becomes inconsistent. When paired with a retro-reflective photoelectric sensor, the OP60-20 reflector supports reliable sensing across these extended spans by returning a concentrated and stable light signal. Its triple-glass optical design helps overcome issues caused by dust, vibration, and uneven conveyor surfaces. The rigid screw-mounted construction maintains precise alignment over time, reducing false switching and minimizing maintenance. This ensures dependable detection of boxes, trays, or pallets moving continuously through high-throughput conveyor systems.
2. Pallet Position Verification in High-Bay Warehouses
High-bay automated warehouses require accurate pallet detection across wide aisles and tall storage racks. The OP60-20 reflector enables sensors to operate effectively at longer distances, allowing flexible installation even when physical access is limited. Its strong reflective performance helps maintain consistent signal return despite ambient lighting changes and airborne particles. The durable metal housing withstands mechanical stress from nearby equipment, ensuring long-term stability. This reliable pallet position verification supports smooth storage and retrieval cycles while reducing system interruptions caused by missed detections or unstable sensor feedback.
3. Access Monitoring in Large Industrial Machines
Industrial machines with wide access openings or protective zones demand dependable long-range detection to maintain operational safety. The OP60-20 reflector improves reflected signal strength, allowing photoelectric sensors to monitor these areas with greater confidence. Its precision optical alignment ensures consistent detection even in environments with fluctuating light conditions. The robust aluminum construction resists vibration from heavy machinery, preventing gradual misalignment. This supports continuous monitoring of access doors or safety zones, helping to maintain safe operation while avoiding unnecessary machine stops caused by unreliable sensing.
4. Vehicle Detection in Automated Transport and Handling Systems
Automated transport systems rely on accurate vehicle detection to manage movement, spacing, and stopping positions. The OP60-20 reflector enhances detection reliability by delivering a strong reflected signal that remains stable despite dust, floor reflections, or variations in vehicle surfaces. Its large reflective area improves tolerance to minor alignment deviations, while the solid mounting prevents drift over time. This allows sensors to detect approaching vehicles earlier and more consistently, supporting smoother traffic control, reduced positioning errors, and higher overall efficiency in automated material handling environments.
