Dear customer,
here below an overview of fork sensors:
Standard fork sensors
Available sizes: 05, 10, 20, 30, 50, 80, 120, 180, 220 mm
Ideal alternative to photocells or optical through-beam or reflective fibers; the housing, made of metal with a visible red LED light already aligned and with integrated amplifier, allows a streamlined, clean and robust solution for the component passage control applications.
Laser fork sensors
Available sizes: 30, 50, 80, 120, 180 mm
The compact fork system creates a laser beam with a very small red light spot, able to get lower than 0,1mm resolutions, constant on the whole fork width, allowing the detection of objects in a precise and reliable way at any point between the emitter and receiver.
The two-dimensional receiver element allows to mantain the nominal resolution even in the presence of slight mechanical deformations and ensures excellent performance on transparent objects.
Possible applications: counting and controlling small components in the handling process and assembly.
Detuned fork sensors
Available sizes: 80, 120, 180 mm
The detuned series, created for the detection of transparent objects, is much cheaper if compared to the laser series.
Fork sensor with longer legs
Available size: 120 mm
The leg lenght is 114mm (instead of 54mm), as in the forks with a width of 180 and 220mm.
The long-legs series makes the mounting on small conveyor belts easier and smarter; by resorting to positioning “from below”, the top becomes accessible, free from annoying wiring, allowing the transit of objects with different heights.
FOR ALL THE ABOVE MENTIONED FORKS DELIVER IN 24 HOURS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Fork sensor for labels
Available size: 03 mm
Fork sensors for labels are widely used in packaging industry, above all for counting/detecting labels, recognizing breakage, and detecting signs on semi-transparent film. Special applications are the right positioning, the power control, the detection of damaged caps and double sheet.
Light-band fork sensors
Available sizes: 40, 80 mm
The series is characterized by a 8mm or 30mm wide light band of uniform intensity.
By using analog or digital amplifiers the system can offer:
- analog output 0-10V or 4-20mA for web edge control or profile measure
- on-off output for counting objects with complex shapes, where a single beam doesn’t guarantee the correct interception
