Friends who pay attention to Sick will not be unfamiliar with the W4-3 series products, this classic mini photoelectric is widely praised by the industry for its excellent set pressing function and diverse optical functions. Whether it's a lubricated and reflective mobile phone surface, a wrinkled black food bag, or a porous and high-gloss PCB, you'll find a product in the W4-3 series for safety testing.

With the rapid development of the automation profession, the user's requirements for photoelectric sensors are becoming more and more stringent, under the great success of W4-3, Sick continues to develop products that are more suitable for the user's intelligent production needs, and finally launched a new mini intelligent photoelectric W4F series this year.
Introduction to the performance of the W4F series of miniature intelligent photoelectric sensors from sick

Compared with the W4-3, the W4F adopts an integrated configuration, and the shell is constructed of Vistal material, which greatly improves the strength. The unique rotary press integrated teaching button and blue energy ruler can not only satisfy the different debugging habits of users, but also provide clear and clear visual guidance for teaching. The interior adopts Sea's latest ASIC chip technology, which can effectively shield ambient light and scenery interference. In addition to the classic dual-line light source, long-range press and V-shaped lens, the W4F series has launched a unique model of double switch, triangulation ranging and narrow beam, providing customers with a variety of functions in a small space.

A miniature photoelectric sensor capable of triangulation

WTT4, WTT12 and other photoelectric flying principle have excellent ranging function in mid-range intervals, and the measurement repeatability can reach 1.1-3.0mm. In the use scenario of short interval (<150mm), triangulation is often more stable. W4F has launched a miniature photoelectric based on triangulation principle ranging, with a detection interval of 15-220mm, a repeatability of 0.3-2.2mm, and an output interval value through IO-Link communication. In addition to the ranging function, this product also has a normal switching function, with built-in dual independent switches, which can teach different intervals separately, and perform logic programming such as window, and, or for two-stage switching quantities to realize the functions of object state distinction and edge identification.

WTB4FT dual-line light

The secret weapon for detecting bright, porous, uneven objects

Food packaging conveyor lines, PCB board production lines, and intralogistics conveyor lines often need to detect objects such as brightness, porousness, and unevenness. Due to the special material and structure, it is difficult to achieve stable detection with ordinary point light source photoelectric products. W4F double-line spot would be a good solution. The two linear light spots extend the scanning range, and even for the detection of porous objects, it is still possible to output a stable and continuous signal. When inspecting bright surfaces such as PCB boards and food packaging bags, the unique light point of view makes the W4F dual-line light have the characteristics of similar to V-lens, and the return light captured by the receiver is enhanced, making the inspection results more accurate.

WTF4FD Vision Push-Type

An excellent choice for detecting irregular incoming materials and thin objects in a stable setting

In some cases, the shape of the material on the conveyor belt is irregular, and the commonly used set press type photoelectric receiver cannot capture the light back stably; Or the incoming material is close to the conveyor belt, and the height difference with the conveyor belt is very small, so it is difficult to distinguish whether the source of light return at the receiving end belongs to the object or the scene. In both cases, attempts to use long-range photoelectric presses often yield surprising results. Unlike the set press, the long-range press relies on a stable set, and the yellow indicator lights up after the set is taught; When an object is presented in front of the set, the yellow indicator lights down, the object is detected, and a signal is output. This type of photoelectric can achieve a smaller height of the smallest detection object and is often suitable for the detection of thin and irregular objects.
