Your house already knows when you walk into a room, but most homeowners don’t realize how much their sensors could actually do for them. These tiny devices sitting in corners and mounted on ...

The new SA1N series of space-saving subminiature photoelectric sensors is available in a barrel-mount fiber-type diffuse-reflective infrared LED style, secured with M6 nuts through a mounting hole; ...

In this workflow, the distance between adjacent flower-hanging devices is a fixed value. The compact photoelectric sensor (as shown in Figure 1) calculates the distance between the fresh-cut roses and ...

Both series’ ranges include diffuse sensors, retro-reflective sensors and through-beam photoelectric sensors in smooth stainless-steel housings. These are particularly suitable for hygiene-sensitive ...

L-com has recently begun offering a line of diffuse reflection photoelectric proximity sensors.

AutomationDirect has added AchieVe FDM series 12mm tubular photoelectric sensors that offer a rugged metal construction, high IP67 protection ratings and sensing distances up to 4 meters. These ...

This article compares three types of photoelectric sensors—through-beam, retroreflective and diffused—used in industrial applications to detect object presence.

Laser Proximity Sensors use laser beams to detect the presence or absence of objects within a certain range. They are used in security systems, robotics, automation, and industrial processes, where ...
