No Object is Too Dark or Too Light
.
See not only black objects, but also those that are nearly invisible
Even things "not graspable" are now detected reliably: Infrablack object with only 1 % diffuse light reflection can be detected dependably at a range of up to 50 mm.
Sick W2S-2 Sub-miniature Photoelectric Sensor is the fastest and most intelligent sub-miniature photoelectric sensor on the market. It is the only one of its kind capable of detecting objects up 150 mm away. It offers all the benefits of fiber-optic sensors without all the costs. Additionally, this sensor offers a "Smart Sensor Solution" feature that can take over timer, counter, logic and diagnostic control tasks formerly done only by the PLC.
