PowerProx MultiTask photoelectric sensors - Sick

The powerful PowerProx MultiTask photoelectric sensors offer all of the advantages of time-of-flight technology in the world's smallest sensor housing to date, giving maximum flexibility when designing machines.

Objects being conveyed at high speed, small and flat objects, and jet-black or shiny objects can now be reliably detected at sensing ranges between 5 cm and 4 m. PowerProx also provides stable detection results over a large detection angle. The “Distance”, “Speed”, “Precision”, “Small”, “Micro”, and “WTT280L” versions are designed to be used in different applications. This means that PowerProx always offers perfect solution – for empty bay detection via rapid counting right through to use in handling and assembly.
