Opto Electronic Sensor

SICK's new PS30 Pattern Sensor is a scanning Opto-Electronic Sensor for rapid and precise position identification and presence detection for labels, packaging materials, or tubes. The PS30 is able to detect complex patterns even when objects are moving at high speeds of up to 10 m/s. Based on the principle of operation of a line sensor, it delivers a stable switching signal. The PS30 is primarily used in the packaging industry. Distinctive taught-in patterns in an image are used as a reference for the subsequent reliable detection and positioning of objects; special reference marks are not necessary. Increased design freedom, reduced material consumption, and effective process control are the advantages. Commissioning the sensor is a quick and user-friendly process, which can be completed on the control panel, in the SOPAS configuration software, or via the machine's HMI. Engineering tools for automated format changes and visual diagnosis are available. Formats can be changed quicker and more easily, thus saving time and money.
