Baumer's New Contrast Sensor 

Small contrast sensor for fast and reliable print mark detection

Baumer FKDK14

Baumer's new FKDK 14 contrast sensors for print mark detection are fast and accurate, making them the ideal, economical solution for print mark detection in packaging and printing machines. Utilizing white light as the light source, the FKDK 14 series can precisely detect print marks of all colors.

 

Optimized for high throughput speed, the new contrast sensor offers a response time down to 50 μs. This allows very short throughput times to be achieved. At the same time, the contrast sensor is very compact and can be integrated easily into any machine. The 2-point teach-in procedure is simple and intuitive and can also be conducted dynamically during process.

 

Since the light source is white light, the contrast sensor can reliably detect print marks of all colors, even with slight contrast to the background. The switching status is indicated with an LED, which is clearly visible through the transparent housing base of the contrast scanner.

Game Changer?

The First Programmable Position Cylinder!

Insight ControlThe first repairable tie-rod air cylinder with em-bedded electronics providing a pair of user programmable stop points. This cylinder design features both NFPA and Non-NFPA configurations.

The iNSiGHT® Series Cylinder is a new design featuring embedded electronics, external keypad and wired outputs for a pneumatic cylinder. Precise repeatable position is easily programmed with the use of the external keypad.


NO MAGNETS

Unlike magnetic fields vulnerable to outside forces, QVLA®  is a contained signal.  QVLA®  has been tested in environments of electrical fields to 1,700,000 volts at 700,000 amps with no effect.


NO FERROUS METAL NEEDED

QVLA®  works with cardboard, plastic, wood, metal, anything able to set up a barrier to light.


WELD FIELD IMMUNE

LESS EXPENSIVE

Lower initial cost.

Solid state electronics last much longer than reed switches or potentiometers keeping repair and maintenance costs down.

No magnets to weaken over time.  LED life determined to be decades.

Seals tested to greater than 1000 miles, guaranteed to 500 miles.  Tie-rod air cylinder with iNSiGHT® is repairable.

No lubrication to purchase or maintain with iNSiGHT®; assembled dry, operates dry.

No extra machining needed.

No sending unit needed.


No speed limit

Go as fast as you can, no worries about running over reed switches, no worries about reducing magnet life by actuator speed.
