Banner Engineering: Laser Distance Sensor

Jan. 21, 2015
The Q4X laser distance sensor reliably detects distance changes as small as 1 mm and covers a 25 to 300 mm range across multiple target colors, materials and surfaces.

The unit is useful in difficult distance-based sensing applications as it easily detects objects regardless of target surface reflectivity. It reliably detects black foam in front of black plastic in automotive interior and exterior assembly; parts of varying colors in consumer packaged goods and automotive industries; black rubber in front of metal in robotic assembly, especially automotive; multicolored packaging and secondary packaging in food, beverage and cosmetics; part-in-place for poka-yoke or error proofing of assembly steps; small parts for automated assembly processes, such as caps, seals, O-rings, washers, vials and jars; a wide array of parts in vibratory feeder bowl equipment, including part level detection in the bowl (bowl empty, bowl full), and part present in the feeder track (i.e. track full). It provides a clear distance readout from the angled four-digit display that is easily viewed from multiple vantage points. The unit also offers intuitive user setup using three tactile buttons located below the display. For use in wet and high-pressure washdown environments, the unit is constructed with a housing rated to IP69K. FDA-grade stainless steel resists mechanical impact, over tightening and extreme vibration.
