MultiTask photoelectric sensors Sensor Intelligence.

LESS IS MORE: TranspaTect DELIVERS COMPLETE TRANSPARENCY WITHOUT REFLECTORS Installing a reflector is now a thing of the past, with the new TranspaTect MultiTask photoelectric sensor! Reliability without reflectors Convincing benefits The TranspaTect detects transparent and semi-transparent objects as well as glossy, mirrored, or uneven surfaces reliably. Using the very latest SICK technologies, TranspaTect can detect trays and bottles without using reflectors, as existing machine parts such as panels or walls perform this role instead. Together with the AutoAdapt feature, TranspaTect...

TranspaTect FOR THE FOOD AND BEVERAGE, AND PHARMACEUTICALS INDUSTRIES Benefits for machine designers and system operators Machine designers and system operators are living with reflector workarounds. These can be redesigning the machine to install reflectors in tight spaces. Another workaround is to require regular cleaning intervals as reflectors can be damaged or even destroyed by aggressive cleaning agents. With TranspaTect, these issues are now a thing of the past. This innovative detection solution affords machine designers unprecedented freedom when it comes to designing machines, and...

TranspaTect MULTITASK PHOTOELECTRIC SENSORS One thing is clear no reflector needed Product description Thanks to new technologies from SICK, TranspaTect MultiTask photoelectric sensors are now able to detect transparent and semitransparent trays and bottles without the need for reflectors, a frequent source of errors. In these applications, the reference surface is provided by a stable matte background. Sensitivity is taught in simply by press- ing the teach-in button. Even high-gloss, reflective, or uneven surfaces can be detected reliably. Combined with AutoAdapt, SICK’s function for...
