Description

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

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

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