Detect Optically Difficult Targets

Nov. 1, 2008
The compact UC4 Ultrasonic Sensor is designed to provide heightened detection of optically difficult targets such as clear, shiny and dark materials, as well as heightened performance in optically challenging environments.
Applications include hopper and tank fill level detection (powders, ink, and clear liquids); bottling line presence detection of clear bottles and multi-colored caps; semiconductor industry to detect wafers, solar panels, glass, and PCBs; and woodworking and metal forming/fabricating machinery for product detection and to detect the positioning of internal parts on the machine, such as levers and arms. The UC4 can be set up in three detection and output modes — Background Suppression (BGS), Window, and Reflection mode.SICK Inc.www.sickusa.com952.941.6780
