Fork sensor UFW - SICK

The UFW fork sensor from SICK makes non-contact web edge guiding possible. Thanks to ultrasonic technology, the UFW detects various materials with great precision and is therefore ideally suited for applications with transparent films or light-sensitive materials. The compact housing designs (30 mm and 60 mm fork width) allow space-saving installation. Calibration is simple to perform using a teach-in button. Three LEDs indicate immediately the position of the web material within the fork. Furthermore, the IO-Link communication interface opens numerous possibilities for fine adjustment, analyses, and monitoring.
