Ultrasonic sensors
In order to ensure the best material flow, the in-plant logistics system often uses conveying equipment, and if you want to run the conveying equipment at high speed, it is necessary to obtain the location information of the container. Turck's RU50 ultrasonic sensor is ideal for inspecting containers in intralogistics systems. The transducer consists of a highly resistant liquid crystal polymer (LCP) plastic cylindrical housing with a translucent M12 connector, and a translucent end cap for the plug version, which allows you to easily view the switching status of the ultrasonic sensor from various viewpoints.
The RU ultrasonic sensors are equipped with an IO-Link interface, which transmits additional signal quality information in addition to useful signals and supports the preventive maintenance of conveyor equipment in intralogistics. The sensor also visualizes and compensates for internal and external temperature fluctuations, so it can be used at any time under a wide range of environmental conditions, making it the best solution for conveying equipment detection.
Inductive sensors
For intralogistics, Turck's Uprox series of inductive sensors detects metal objects in a non-tactile and wear-free manner. The product has a high resistance to magnetic field interference. Thanks to the special coil concept, Turck's Uprox inductive sensors offer high switching intervals. The device is sensitive, the commissioning time is short, and the product reliability and operability meet all kinds of demanding requirements in the intralogistics site.
For example, in intralogistics systems where position detection is required from below, the NI40UE-QV40 inductive sensor can be installed in a space-constrained rectangular groove with a 100 mm edge on the steel plate of the transport frame, requiring only a small metal-free area for interference-free operation, protected by the perimeter metal components of the machine structure.
Non-touch encoders
All kinds of automated logistics equipment in the factory logistics, such as: conveyors, unmanned forklifts, hoists, elastic forks, drum motors, steering wheels, shuttles, AGV trolleys, heavy-duty AGVs and other equipment all need to use encoders to monitor speed, corner, interval, etc., and then ensure the safe, rapid and high-quality operation of various intralogistics equipment. Turck's reliable stainless steel non-touch QR24 inductive encoders are undoubtedly a good choice for monitoring intralogistics equipment.
The sensors and positioning elements of the non-touch QR24 inductive encoder are completely switched off and are planned as two separate hermetically sealed units that can withstand vibrations or shocks from the shaft. There is no need for wear and tear ball bearings or seals that can lead to machine downtime or long maintenance.
