Sick Sensors – An introduction to the classification of proximity sensors

1. Measurement Sensors and sensor systems from SICK measure dimensions, profiles, volumes, distances, speeds, and filling levels to ensure smooth processes. 2. Detection SICK sensors can detect the presence and quality of various objects as well as the quality of consumer products to meet the needs of ...

Photoelectric sensor is a small electronic device, a key element to end the photoelectric conversion in various photoelectric detection systems. It is a sensor that uses the various properties of light to detect the presence or absence of objects and changes in the surface state. Photoelectric sensors are non-contact, fast responding, and functionally reliable.

1. Set to "Surface" to measure the distance from the first surface within the sensor's detection range. This setting is available for all sensor heads. 2. Set to Glass Thickness to measure the distance from the front to the back of a transparent object, such as glass. This means that it has been measured with the sensing ...

With the continuous advancement of the wave of industrial upgrading in the metallurgical industry, the refractory brick industry in the subdivided field has also ushered in a new opportunity, machine vision as the core technology of industrial automation has also been fully applied, and the 3D camera of Sick has shown excellent performance in the field of refractory bricks. Refractory bricks are abbreviated ...

Infrared sensors are sensors that use the physical properties of infrared rays to make measurements. Infrared, also known as infrared light, has the properties of reflection, refraction, scattering, interference, absorption, etc. Any substance that has a certain temperature above absolute zero can radiate infrared rays. ...

1. Self-regulation. At the beginning of use, please check whether the switch itself is in good condition, whether the appearance is in good condition, etc. 2. When avoiding obstructions. When the photoelectric switch is used, for some goods such as colored goods, goods with weak reflectivity, and goods with large gaps between small pieces...

Principle of ultrasonic distance sensor: Ultrasonic waves have a great ability to penetrate liquids and solids, especially in solids that are opaque to sunlight, and it can penetrate to a depth of tens of meters. Ultrasonic waves will produce significant reflections when they encounter impurities or interfaces, forming reflections into echoes, which can produce ...

1. First, connect the external hardware and install the external COM port of the scanner to the serial port of the industrial computer. 2. The power supply of the SICK scanner control box is 24V positive and negative induction eyes, and the feedback signals of 10, 11 and 12 corresponding to the electric eyes, 24V+, 24V-. ...

The 17th China International Industry Fair (IAS2015) was held in the National Convention and Exhibition Center (Shanghai) from November 3 to 7, 2015.

Quality assurance through programmable imaging: RIBE Technik from Schwabach has developed an innovative bumper assembly system that includes an inspection system. Machine vision from SICK enables the identification of individual components and the monitoring of each operating process as a special system concept ...

1. No weighing reading This kind of fault is generally more common, the weighing value of a certain scale is zero, regardless of whether there is something on the scale, its weighing value is always zero. There are several reasons for the above failure: a. the sensor is damaged, b. the line is open, c. the signal is ...

The Visionary-T Mini is a 3D snapshot camera based on TOF (Time-of-Flight) that outputs internally calibrated 2D grayscale images and 3D point cloud data at the same time, helping users reliably identify and locate objects in indoor and semi-outdoor environments. ...

1. Be sure to check whether the power supply used is in line with DC12-24V±10%, and the maximum is not more than 40V, otherwise the photoelectric switch may be damaged. 2. In order to ensure high stability detection, it is necessary to ensure that two points are achieved: first, the detection distance meets the specified rated detection distance, such as the detection distance is 12±2mm ...

Based on the InspectorP series of Sick 2D smart cameras, the deep learning SensorApp Intelligent Inspection Plus was officially launched, adding "Anomaly detection" and "Classification ...

The next Gen family has added a new generation of intelligent laser photoelectric sensor W12L is now fully available, which continues the metal housing and IP69 protection level of the old product, and integrates the Bluepilot teaching assistance technology of W4F and W16/26. Fine light spots, extended detection ...

Analysis of the factors that may cause the zero point change of the SICK sensor: overload will lead to a sudden change in the zero point, and the output resistance will obviously exceed the specified value impact, as above; Moisture return or turbidity, so it is mainly manifested as a continuous change of 0 point, high and low, etc., at this time, the ground resistance will be further reduced - in ...

With the development of Industry 4.0, the intelligent level of the production line of high-speed smart home enterprises has been continuously improved, and the processes of cutting, edge banding, drilling, sorting, spraying, and packaging have been integrated to achieve a real "unmanned factory". 　　Intelligent and flexible production equipment allows robots to ...

Key Characteristics of SICK Sensors (Displacement Sensor Principle) Nominal Resistance: The value of resistance indicated on the potentiometer. Promise error: The ratio of the nominal resistance to the practical resistance to the nominal resistance is the resistance deviation, which indicates the accuracy of the potentiometer. Promise errors are usually made in the ± 20 ...

Its robustness extends its service life High flexibility, shortened probes and interchangeable connectors Cost-effective with a wide range of output signals: The same system can be used for spot and continuous level measurement Commissioning is simple, calibration and maintenance is required Cancel the measurement ...

How the color mark sensor works The color mark sensor is actually a reverse installation, the light source is perpendicular to the target object device, and the bearer is biased towards the device at an acute angle to the object, so that it only detects the scattered light from the target object, and then prevents the sensor from directly bearing the reflected light, and can make ...
