Ultrasonic sensor sets up in seconds
The S18U Series of compact ultrasonic sensors features an advanced microprocessor design, pushbutton programming and bright diagnostic status LEDs located directly on the sensor housing.
Luminescence sensors aren't fooled by colour
The QL50 and QL55 self-contained luminescence sensors use a modulated ultraviolet LED to scan for luminescence in materials, and are not affected by colour or contrast shifts.
Colour models include the colour match tool for detecting an infinite number of colour variations accurately.
The Pro features a DIN-mountable controller with a compact camera.
Standard grey scale cameras are available for accurate analysis at high speeds and the high -resolution 1.3 megapixel models feature 1280 x 1024 resolution for extra detail or extended sensing field of view.
Colour cameras offer a 752 x 480 resolution for detecting a specific colour and unlimited colour variations in the cameras field of view.
In addition, sealed IP68-rated cameras are available for challenging industrial and washdown environments.
"The Pro offers the broadest range of inspection and analysis tools to solve nearly any inspection challenge", said Dan Holste, Director for Banner Vision Sensors.
"With the intuitive PresencePlus, configuring advanced sensing applications is faster and easier than ever before, while common applications are virtually plug-and-play".
Holste adds, "Banner brings affordable and easy to learn vision sensing technology to all sensor specifiers".
The PresencePlus Pro accurately solves many different factory applications, making it ideal for a wide range of industries.
Examples include the following: pharmaceutical vial cap and package inspection; location of automotive components on dashboard trim pieces; full case detection and cap colour inspection on packaging lines; 2D stamped bar code verification on metal parts; large area verification for sorting and die protection in tyre manufacturing; label verification and positioning in bottling applications; food packaging error proofing; and automotive handle colour inspection.
