Vision Sensors

SensoPart covers the entire range of industrial image processing with its portfolio of vision solutions – from VISOR® plug and play solutions for standard applications to the freely configurable Eyesight vision system for particularly complex automation tasks.

Camera + Software = Vision!

A powerful smart camera in compact tightly sealed sensor housings with uniform dovetail mounting forms the basis of our VISOR® vision sensor and Eyesight vision systems. Among other features, it has integrated signal processing, LED illumination (white, red, infrared, UV), data interfaces and digital I/Os, integrated optics or C-mount, as well as user-friendly configuration software.

Distance Measurement

Rapid and precise measurement, accurate positioning, and detection of the most varied of materials – distance measurement is a central requirement in many areas of automation technology. Whether for checking the winding of coils with millimetre accuracy, the detection of double sheets, or the accurate positioning of storage and retrieval machines – distance sensors from SensoPart are reliable tools for most purposes.

Colour Sensors

The attachment of colour marks that are then evaluated with a colour or contrast sensor is a proven method for identifying objects in industrial production. Even objects with differing shapes and surface properties can be very reliably detected in this way. SensoPart offers sensors with five different functional principles for colour and contrast detection.

Photoelectric Sensors

Photoelectric sensors are a standard type of sensor in automation technology. At SensoPart you will find the right sensor for almost every conceivable application.Their product portfolio offers a comprehensive selection of differing sizes, ranges and switching variants. Regardless of whether you choose a sub-miniature sensor for restricted machine conditions or a large housing with a particularly long range or scanning distance all SensoPart's sensors share excellent performance data, high reliability and solid workmanship.

Fibre Optics

Fibre-optic cable systems from SensoPart are the solution when installation space is restricted or operating conditions are hot or dirty. Robust sheath and fibre materials in the fibre-optic cable also offer excellent protection against aggressive chemicals. The sensors are protected in a switching cabinet or at a safe distance, while the fibre-optic cable heads are mounted in the immediate vicinity of the target objects. The large selection of different cable heads opens up numerous application possibilities for SensoPart customers as well as providing a high level of flexibility regarding mounting. Some fibre-optic cable systems from SensoPart cover the same applications as conventional optical sensors. Depending on the customer’s application, they are available as photoelectric sensors or proximity sensors. Whereby the powerful fibre-optic sensors ensure high levels of functionality and reliability.

Fork Sensors

Fork sensors and optical windows display characteristic properties as a result of their special housing design: thanks to their precise beam guidance they are particularly suitable for small part detection. The sensors are also easy to mount because no time consuming adjustment is required.

Ultrasonic Sensors

Ultrasonic sensors may be a useful alternative where optical sensors come up against their physical limits. This applies, for example, for objects with uneven surfaces or under difficult ambient conditions, or with highly transparent media as well as moving,highly reflective liquid surfaces. Typical uses of ultrasonic sensors are therefore checking the presence of highly transparent foils and measuring the filling levels in liquid containers. A major advantage of ultrasonic sensors is the absolutely reliable background suppression resulting from their sound time-of-flight measurement principle.

Inductive Proximity Sensors

Because of their functional principle, inductive sensors are only suitable for detecting metal objects. But they do this extremely reliably and are also very robust and resistant (e.g. regarding environmental factors), which makes them interesting for numerous industrial applications. They are mainly used wherever the detection of uniform movements is involved – for example as proximity switches for determining the position of transported machine parts such as saddles or hydraulic cylinders, for measuring rotary speeds on vehicle crankshafts, or as pulse generators for motor ignition.

Capacitive Sensors

Capacitive sensors are suitable for the detection of metallic and non-metallic objects of all types. Even highly transparent glasses or liquids are easy to detect with a capacitive sensor. Only the dielectric conductivity of the target material is relevant: the greater the dielectric constant of a material, the higher the possible switching distances or the more reliable the detection. The measurement of filling levels is among the classic applications of capacitive sensors because many liquids have comparatively high dielectric constants. Under certain circumstances it is also possible to measure from outside the container because capacitive sensors can, so to speak, see through walls. They are also used for detecting solids such as wood, paper and plastics.
