Technical Considerations for Selecting Distance-based Sensors for OEM Applications

Pepperl+Fuchs

Distance-based photoelectric sensors are an advanced class of sensors that not only determine the presence of an object, but also its position. Three methods have emerged as front-runners of distance-based photoelectric sensing; background suppression, and each has strengths and applications in which it excels. This paper provides key technical considerations for selecting distance-based sensors for varied applications.
