Application examples optoCONTROL CLS1000 Wafer notch detection In wafer production, the position of the wafer must be known or a specific position must be reached for further processing. This is determined using the wafer notch and transferred by optical sensors. Thanks to its material independence, the reflective wafer can be optimally detected and, thanks to its excellent recognition performance, the notch can be positioned reliably and with an accuracy of a few tenths of a millimeter. Recommended systems: CLS1000-AI-NPN + CFS4-C10-E-T400, CLS1000-AI-NPN + CFS4-R21 Breakage inspection of belt...

■ Reflex sensor for the distinction of materials and parts Models with and without external threat In the case of the reflex sensor, the infrared light emitted by the controller is guided to the detecting object via the sensor's fiber-optic light guides and reflected there. Both diffuse and directly reflected components are present in the back-reflected infrared light. The reflected light components of the object to be detected are received by the same sensor and transmitted back to the controller via the optical fiber for evaluation. The high-quality reflective sensor, in combination with the...
