Description

Fork light barriers have several advantages compared to standard barriers. Transmitter and receiver are perfectly aligned. Mounting is therefore very easy. There is no mechanical misalignment possible after mounting. Furthermore each version of fork width is optimized in light intensity, sensitivity and measuring frequency. Thus fork light barriers have a high resolution and reproducibility. They are ideally suited for detection of small parts and for precise edge detection.

The versions with laser instead of red light are even approx. 10 times more precise.

The teach-in versions offer a user friendly teach of smallest objects.
