Benefits Introduce In Detail

Differentiating Targets and Backgrounds within 0.5 mm

High-resolution background suppression sensors are the ideal choice for precision sensing applications. This sensor can differentiate a target from the background within 0.5 mm. This level of precision is very key for applications that inspect parts or for automated assembly. The OJ’s flat laser beam has a consistent width, and its maximum range reaches 200 mm.

The advanced microprocessor has powerful signal and analysis capabilities. This allows the OJ to learn the characteristics of the target and the background in specific applications.

During the initial setup process, the school will determine the target and the non-target lighting conditions. Then OJ’s sensitivity will be automatically adjusted to ensure the highest safety margin under both conditions.
