Multi-Pixel Array Sensors

Sept. 1, 2011
RL31-8-H-800 multi-pixel array sensors boast a sensing distance up to three times that of similarly sized sensors, can reliably and consistently detect objects of varied colors without requiring any adjustments or the need to “re-teach,” and quickly and easily adapt to multiple and evolving application requirements, according to the company.

The result is a solution said to combine the simplicity of a single-switch point photoelectric sensor with the adaptability of a laser distance measurement device. Sensors leverage an ultra high-intensity emitter called PowerBeam to simplify sensor alignment and detection. In addition, IO-Link technology enables users to configure more than 12 specifications to suit specific application needs.
