Clear or Reflective Object Detection
Detecting clear or shiny objects is one of the biggest challenges sensors face. Banner offers several solutions.

|
Pharmaceutical Bottle Detection |
Clear bottles filled with clear liquid passing on a conveyor need to be counted. This aseptic environment, constructed of stainless steel and undergoing frequent washdowns, makes detection a challenge. |

Clear Bottle Counting |
Detecting and counting clear bottles in pharmaceutical applications has been a difficult sensing challenge. With traditional photoelectric sensors the sensing beam may burn through translucent materials, or the emitted light may reflect off of the bottle, resulting in unreliable counting results.
Ultrasonic sensors can be used to reliably detect clear objects, but ultrasonic solutions may not have a fast enough response time and the ultrasonic beam is usually too wide to detect the gaps between bottles. A solution is needed that will reliably count clear bottles as they pass on a conveyor and is sensitive to the small gaps between targets.

Polybag Seal Detection |
Plastic bags are manufactured in a continuous web, with a seal and perforation between bags. Since the plastic is clear, it can be very difficult for traditional sensors to detect the perforations between the plastic bags in order to determine when to separate them. |

Counting Reflective Rings |
Reflective surfaces are one of the more challenging types of objects to sense with a traditional photoelectric sensor. Cylindrical reflective objects are especially difficult to sense due to the light reflecting differently on the various parts of the curved surface of the object. |
