WFS3-40B41CA00 Sick Fork Sensor Photoelectric Sensor, 3 mm Detection Range

Overview_x000D_ At a glance_x000D_ Housing with slim forked shape_x000D_ Simple and precise setting of the switching threshold via IO-Link, teach-in button, or plus/minus buttons_x000D_ Light/dark switching function_x000D_ Fast response time: 50 μs_x000D_ PNP or NPN switching output_x000D_ Plastic housing with IP 65 enclosure rating_x000D_ Smart sensor with integrated IO-Link interface_x000D_ Your Benefit_x000D_ Flexible and simple mounting directly on the edge of a label dispenser ensures a high level of accuracy in the process_x000D_ Small housing allows simple installation even where space is limited_x000D_ User-friendly adjustment allows easy and quick commissioning_x000D_ Fast response times enable precise detection – even at very high track speeds_x000D_ Thanks to IO-Link or external teach-in, the switching threshold can be adapted while the process is running, increasing process reliability_x000D_ Easy to access data from the PLC via IO-Link_x000D_ The slim, forked shape of the WFS has been specially developed for the requirements of the labeling process. The design allows the sensor to be mounted directly on the edge of a label dispenser. Difficulty in detecting the label gap is finally eliminated – the sensor's switching threshold can be taught-in while the label strip is running. This sophisticated operating concept means the sensor can be adjusted to different labels quickly, easily, and reliably. The fast response time guarantees exceptional repeat accuracy._x000D_ Applications_x000D_ Packaging industry: Detection of non-transparent labels on different web materials_x000D_ Double sheet detection_x000D_ Quick and reliable label detection_x000D_ Integrated label counting for timely coil changeovers_x000D_ Cutting of continuous labels without print marks_x000D_ Triggering_x000D_ Note_x000D_ Product details cover the whole product family.
