Wide beam retroreflective sensor for reliable leading edge detection of irregular shaped objects or pallets
- Visible red beam for simple alignment and bright LEDs for visual indication
- Up to 4 meter range for mounting flexibility
- Two sensitivity levels for detection of challenging targets such as shrink wrapped pallets, small objects and film or perforated packaging
- Easy set-up, adjustment and LO/DO selectable via single push button
- 250 Hz switching frequency for high speed production lines
- IP67 and IP69 for washdown applications
Applications
Retrofitting for Pallet Detection
Banner’s Q76E retroreflective sensor uses a wide vertical beam. The beam from a single Q76E crosses the path of the conveyor horizontally to a corresponding reflector, which delivers light back to the sensor. This provides superior detection for any leading edge that interrupts the beam, at any angle, which makes it ideal for retrofitting conveyor systems to reliably identify the presence or absence of palleted items.
Leading Edge Detection
Sensors detect the leading edge of pallets, polybags, blister packs, envelopes, tubes, and a wide range of difficult to detect targets.
