aumer Electric are introducing their latest innovation – the first light
barrier without a reflector, featuring a unique detection design.This
especially sensitive version of the SmartReflect series picks up the tini-
est changes in intensity, which enables it to detect highly transparent
foils, bowls or bottles.This model is also available with a hygienic and
wash-down design, as well as protection class IP 69K and the proTect+
tightness concept.
With the SmartReflect, Baumer has further improved the safest way
of detecting objects in the field of photoelectric sensors. The physical
interruption of a closed light barrier by an object.With the SmartReflect
for Baumer, the closed light beam is set up between the sensor and a
machine part, for example. Commonly used separate reflectors or receiv-
ers are no longer required.The colour and material of the background
and the object to be recognised are unimportant.
In the food industry in particular, the SmartReflect proves it superior-
ity. It monitors the packaging process, for example, by identifying the
correct positioning of the food to be packaged.The SmartReflect is used
whenever the installation of a separate reflector or receiver presents a
real headache for plant engineers. Because the reflector is not required,
this eliminates the reflector installation, commissioning, adjustment and
cleaning costs which would otherwise be necessary, resulting in about
50% time savings. All in all, the SmartReflect, available from
Tempera-
ture Controls
, offers measurable added value through the reduction of
operating costs and by maximum (process) stability.
