- Flexibly expandable light grid system: Up to 60 sensors can be cascaded and controlled centrally via the FlexChain host.
- Optimum measurement certainty thanks to sequential sensor cycling without mutual interference.
- High flexibility due to logic configuration in the host and the IO-Link, CANopen and RS-485 interface variants.
- Sequential cycling prevents mutual interference.
- Free arrangement of various sensor. technologies.
- The FLG (frame light grid) switching automation light grid is the innovative solution in which the sender and receiver are combined in one housing for the detection of small parts.
- In dynamic operating mode, the FLG performs reject and removal control of workpieces in pressing and punching machines and also supports the packaging process.
- In static operating mode, it can be used for monitoring thread breakage.
- With a monitored area of 200 mm x 250 mm or 200 mm x 120 mm, it allows detection of small parts down to minimum dimensions of 2 mm over a large area.
- Simply clever order picking verification
- The PLG is mounted at each storage bay and has an integrated job LED to display pick position. The PLG’s single-sided reflector strip saves space in the bin and reduces damage and installation costs.
- The integrated job LED reduces the order picker’s search time
- Scanning range up to 2 m
