At a glance:
- The KT8 sensor family features two variants. The first variant, the KT8L, enables very reliable detection of the smallest contrast marks and objects thanks to the precise laser.
- Versatile use for various distances from sensor to sensing object
- Precise detection of the smallest marks and objects, e.g. 1 x 1 mm²
- Reliable operation even in the event of object jitter
- Access to the sensor with the controller saves the machine operator time and effort during parameterization
- Individualized parameterization and setting specifically tailored to the application
- Automatic drift correction enables maximum production reliability, for example in the event of weakening print marks
- Reliable operation with high-gloss foils ensures high machine availability

Protection modules
- The PISA protection module distributes the current of a large power source to multiple lower current output channels and therefore allows for smaller wires to be used. Furthermore, it permits only so much current on the output so the input voltage of the unit (which corresponds to the output voltage of the power supply) does not fall below 21V typically.
- This ensures a reliable supply voltage for sensitive equipments, such as PLCs, controls or sensors, when they are connected directly to the same power supply as the PISA protection module.
- Less critical loads, that are not affected by short voltage interruptions or could even cause a fault on the 24V power supply, are connected to one of the four current controlled output channels of the PISA module. The protection is independent of the length of the wires or of the power supplies‘ characteristics.
