Faster and more precise S40 Laser miniature sensors

Markham,ON—June, 2006—Applications requiring the use of laser photoelectric sensors are continuously increasing, not only due to the higher power of the light emission but also due to the better resolution offered by the collimated light beam also on longer distances.
The need to measure distances, detect small objects, or distinguish references in the same position are becoming always more important in automatic machine applications.
Automatic packaging, ceramic and wood industries and in general material and automatic handling of small parts frequently require rapid and precise detection solutions.
DATASENSOR, always striving to anticipate market requirement, has introduced important improvements in the miniature photoelectric sensors with laser emission of the S40 series, in particular the maximum switching frequency has been increased from 1 to 4 kHz.
This improvement, which reduces the sensor response time to only 125 microseconds, positions the S40 laser sensors at the market vertex, without any price increase.
The very narrow light spot and very high switching frequency make the S40 laser sensors particularly suitable to detect small objects moving at high speed, guaranteeing very high repeatability, i.e. the ability of detecting objects positioned in the same spot, without sensor output switching delays.
These improvements will be available on all sensors delivered from the 1st July 2006 onwards.
Product descriptions and ordering codes remain unchanged.
