Photomicro Sensors

These Optical Sensors provide a compact, low-cost method to detect workpieces. Many models are available, including Slot-type Sensors (through-beam) for non-modulated or modulated light, Reflective Sensors, and Sensors with separate emitters and receivers.

Slot-type

The emitter and receiver are set in a U shape to enable easy handling.

Through-beam

Through-beam Sensors have separate emitters and receivers to enable setting them at the required distance.

Slot-type / Reflective

With Slot-type Sensors, the emitter and receiver are set in a U shape to enable easy handling. With Reflective Sensors, light is shown on the workpiece and reflected light is detected.

Limited-reflective

Convergent Reflective Sensors detect workpieces that are only a specific distance from the Sensor. They can be effectively used when there are background objects.

Diffuse-reflective

With Reflective Sensors, light is shown on the workpiece and reflected light is detected.

Retro-reflective

With Retro-reflective Sensors, a Reflector is set and the Sensor detects whether light is reflected back from the Reflector. They are effective for precise, stable detection.
