Reflex Array

Through the combined reflector, the multifunctional photoelectric sensor Reflex Array can detect the front edge of small, flat, transparent or irregularly shaped objects on the conveyor belt within its light band. The detection is not affected by the position and posture of the objects on the conveyor belt. The photoelectric sensor can reliably identify glass bottles or plastic bags, etc. Reflex Array can even detect perforated objects easily without having to switch multiple times. This reduces overall costs and speeds up commissioning. Compared with other solutions that use independent photoelectric sensors or small gratings, Reflex Array has a significant cost advantage.
  • RAY10: a light strip with a height of 25 mm, detecting objects with a size ≥ 5 mm
  • RAY26: Light strip with a height of 55 mm, three styles, detection size ≥ 3 mm, ≥ 5 mm or ≥ 10 mm objects
  • The sensor has a forward-looking maintenance indicator; the maintenance signal is transmitted to the PLC through IO-Link
  • Conveyor belt suppression function in RAY26
 

Customer benefits

  • Compared with other solutions, the overall inspection cost is reduced by up to 50%
  • Detect objects with a size ≥ 1 mm in a light strip with a height of 20 mm, or detect objects with a size ≥ 3 mm, ≥ 5 mm, or ≥ 10 mm in a light strip with a height of 55 mm, or detect objects with a height of 25 mm Detect objects with a size ≥ 5 mm in the light strip
  • Conveyor belt suppression function: manually or by IO-Link
  • PinPoint LED pinpoint light spot makes the light band clearly visible, realizing simple and fast optical alignment
