Photoelectric sensors and light curtain sensors are among the most commonly used sensing devices in factories. Photoelectric ...

What's behind the target can make a tremendous difference in how well reflective sensors do their job. Consider a photoelectric sensor operating in simple diffused mode (i.e., as a proximity sensor).

• Machine builders cannot rely upon a “one-sensor-fits-all” mentality. • Most common sensors today include standard photoelectric sensors, lasers, fiber-optic sensors, ultrasonic sensors, and vision ...

Over the past decade, photoelectric sensing has undergone a steady transition in which older, conventional sensors are being replaced by an innovative technology called background suppression (BGS).
