Monitoring forklift arrival

Monitoring forklift arrival

Automatic sheet shutter control is possible by using through-beam type photoelectric sensor Z3T-2500NIR to detect the arrival of forklifts.
With stronger penetrating power than red LEDs, the built-in infrared LEDs offer higher resistant to dirt and reducing the frequency of cleaning.

Model: Through-beam type Amplifier Built-in Sensor (IR LED)  Z3T-2500NIR




Detecting toppling when transporting building materials

Detecting toppling when transporting building materials

The ZR-L1000N built-in amplifier laser sensor can detect building materials that have toppled over during transportation.
The ZR-L1000N’s small spot red laser enables detection even when the sensor is installed at the same 20 mm pitch as the building material, making it possible to detect objects without interfering with any adjacent sensors (with a sensing distance of up to 7 m).
This means reliable detection of toppled building materials is possible.

Model: Amplifier Built-in Type  ZR-L1000N




Container Loading Status Detection

Container Loading Status Detection

The BGS-2V100N BGS sensor is able to detect whether a container is fully loaded with cartons.
Because the BGS-2V100N is configured based on distance, inspection of cartons is possible even when faced with strong influences such as the cartons being placed at different angles.

Model: BGS Sensor  BGS-2V100N




Positioning of Robot Heads

Positioning of Robot Heads

The TOF-DL series laser distance sensor performs robot head positioning. Because the TOF-DL measures distance according to Time-Of-Flight, positioning is possible at up to 2.5 meters.
This makes the TOF-DL series most suitable for situations where distance is problematic for displacement sensors and pinpoint measurements cannot be performed with ultrasonic sensors.

Model: Ultra-Compact Laser Distance Sensor  TOF-DL Series




Detecting fallen containers, cans for example
(no need of sensors for synchronizing)

Detecting fallen vessels, cans for example (no need of sensors for synchronizing)

C-MOS laser sensor BGS-HDL can detect fallen containers, cans for example, being transported on the conveyer.
Because BGS-HDL has 2 outputs and those threshold can be set individually, it can detect not only existence of the containers but also position or height of them without sensors for synchronizing.
Now, just one sensor can detect existence and position of the target objects where two sensors were needed to detect them.

Model: BGS sensor with digital display type  BGS-HDL Series




Measuring lifting height of elevator

Measuring lifting height of elevator

Ultra-compact laser distance sensor TOF-DL can control lifting height of elevator.
TOF-DL with Time-Of-Flight distance measurement method can measure height of the tray on the elevator stably from upper of it even if side walls of the tray have holes.
It can measure the lifting height of the tray and control elevator even if the height of the trays varies.

Model: Ultra-Compact Laser Distance Sensor  TOF-DL Series




Detecting fallen can on the conveyer

Detecting fallen can on the conveyer

Just one accurate C-MOS laser BGS sensor BGS-HL can detect fallen can on the conveyer.
The sensor has new function "ZONE Teaching", which make possible very easy teaching and detection of level of object that is in a zone. BGS-HL is also IP67 as water resistant sensor so it can be washed by water splash.

Model: Accurate laser BGS sensor with digital display  BGS-HL Series




Detecting objects on the roller conveyer

Detection of Racks in Automatic Libraries

Detection of Racks in Automatic Libraries

The ability to cancel out backgrounds and minimize influence from color ensures accurate rack positioning with a high repeatability.

Model: Standard BGS Type  BGS-20N




Detecting cartons on the conveyer

Detecting cartons on the conveyer

Retro-reflective sensor can detect cartons on the conveyer at high speed.
Stable detection is available even if there is ambient light.

Detecting deviated tier from the conveyer

Detecting deviated tier from the conveyer

The sensing distance of DSR-5000 is 70m (max.).
It can detect anything that blocks the laser beam in as long range as 70 meters along the conveyer.

Detecting position of cars in the mechanical parking garage

Detecting position of cars in the mechanical parking garage

Detect car position in the mechanical parking garage is possible by fiber cable NF-TX01 with large-diameter lens which will work stably even if it gets contaminated with dust.
Its fiber cable is 20m long and can be cut anywhere freely so installation will be easily handled.

Model: Threaded thru-beam type fiber cable  NF-TX01




Detecting carton flaps not closed

Detecting carton flaps not closed

BGS-S08N detects if carton is properly packed or not.
Small size BGS sensor BGS-S08N won't get any influences from colors and surface condition of cartons.
