Photoelectric Sensor Technology Excels at Object Detection in Demanding Applications
Oct. 30, 2024
Sensors adhering to through-beam, diffuse, or retro-reflective sensor principles offer you choices to optimize performance in various environmental and ambient lighting conditions.
Demanding applications ranging from automatic commercial door openers to industrial conveying equipment can benefit from key advances in photoelectric sensor technology. But to properly apply object detection sensors and industrial photoelectric sensors, you will need a thorough understanding of the issues involved in choosing through-beam versus diffuse sensors and in successfully implementing retro-reflective sensor applications.
