The Retro-Reflex Sensor with Light Band scans a significantly larger range than a retro-reflex sensor with a dot-shaped light spot. This makes it ideally suitable for reliably detecting the front edges of objects with irregular shapes or variable sizes. The sensor’s collimated laser light band is absolutely homogeneous and can thus be precisely aligned to the conveyor belt’s level. The sensor detects objects as small as just four millimeters. The compact format can be integrated into the smallest of spaces, for example in the side panels of conveyor systems.
