A-GAGE EZ-ARRAY Series
Uses & Applications
Overview
- Applications include edge and center-guiding, loop tension control, hole sizing, parts counting and on-the-fly product sizing and profiling.
- Closely spaced infrared beams detect objects as small as 5 mm wide; edge resolution is 2.5 mm.
- Controller functionality is built into the receiver, so basic setup requires no controller, software, or PC.
- Easy-to-use software is included for advanced configuration, using a PC.
- Configuration options include 14 measurement modes, three scanning methods, two analog and two discrete outputs and a serial output.
- Range is 4 meters.
- Array heights range from 150 to 2400 mm.
