Photoelectric sensors
Photoelectric sensors detect objects without contact by emitting and receiving a light beam. They are used for presence detection, product counting and detecting the position of parts on conveyors, assembly lines and packaging machinery. Depending on the sensing principle and selected model, they can be used for opaque or transparent objects, or objects with reflective surfaces.

IN PRACTICE
Typical applications
Container detection
Detecting packaging on production lines.
Position checking
Checking whether a part is present.
Through-beam sensors
Detecting objects that interrupt the beam between transmitter and receiver.
Labels and marks
Detecting contrast to control packaging position.
