Positioning Automotive Components

The BGS-HDL series is used for positioning during automotive component assembly.
Detecting holes at an angle is difficult with photoelectric sensors, but The BGS-HDL series allows for stable detection, even when mounting is only possible diagonally, by using "AUTO mode" to always detect with the optimal sampling period.

Detecting Presence, Protrusion, and Tilting of Wafers in FOUP
![]()
The presence, protrusion, and tilting of wafers can be detected with two BGS-HDL series sensors.
Since the BGS-HDL series has two control outputs, the presence of wafers can be detected using output 1 and protrusion using output 2. The tilting of wafers can be detected based on the ON/OFF timing of output 1 from sensors on the left and right.

Paper Position on Cutting Machine

The BGS-HDL05T is useful for detection of paper positioning on a cutting machine.
Detection is performed when a stack of paper hits against the stopper, then the cutter blade cuts the paper to the preset size.
The BGS-HDL05T’s ability to detect a gap of just 0.08 mm ensures high-accuracy detection even with paper thicknesses up to 0.25 mm.
In addition, stable detection is possible even for glossy paper against a shiny background such as metal.

Alignment of glass substrate

Limited reflection type (heat resistant up to 250℃) enables alignment of glass substrate.
As sensor window is dual structure, detection is not affected by leaning of substrate.

Detecting edge of wafer frame
![]()
BGS-HL25t2 can detect very thin object like wafer frame because of its small spot size, φ1mm at 250mm distance from the sensor.
Model: Accurate C-MOS laser sensor BGS-HL Series
Detect glass wafer notch
![]()
By teaching at the notch, the sensor detects only the notch on the wafer and will never get influence from background because it is limited reflective type.
Model: Fiber-Optic Cables NF-DC38/DC39
Wafer mapping (1)
![]()
Narrow view type NF-TG02 has aperture angle of 2°.
It accurately detects a wafer without stray reflection.
Model: Narrow view type, wafers mapping Fiber-Optic Cables NF-TG02
Wafer mapping (2)
![]()
Wafer mapping with limited reflection type NF-DC03. Minimum detectable thickness of the wafer is 0.5mm.
