Automotive
Particularly in robot applications, the automotive industry benefits from the low weight of PNG//smart sensors, universal formats and consistent availability in laser class 1. Protective housings can also prevent damage from weld spatter. Reliable detection of black and glossy objects is just as advantageous in this industry as high precision object detection via fine laser light beams. PNG//smart sensors meet these requirements perfectly.

Electronics
The PNG//smart series line sensors are particularly suitable for the detection of objects with punched or perforated surfaces, such as PCBs. The high precision thanks to the aligned optical axes, the detection of dark and shiny objects with blue light and the avoidance of reciprocal influence in confined spaces make the PNG//smart sensors the ideal product for this industry.

Stacking Height Control of Semiconductors
Beverages
The high protection class IP67/IP68 makes the PNG//smart sensors ideally suited for the wet environments of the beverage industry. Precise detection of transparent PET and glass bottles, as well as high-speed films, is another advantage of this product range in the industry. Ambient conditions can also be compensated for by dynamic readjustment of the switching threshold – a major advantage for this industry.

Wood
The robust housings of PNG//smart sensors ensure perfect stability in the harsh environment of the wood industry. Thanks to the condition monitoring diagnostic function via IO-Link and the dust extraction tube, the dusty and dirty work environments can be completely controlled. This industry also benefits from the long ranges and functional reserve of the sensors, which are also designed for the detection of dark and wet surfaces.

Detection of Decorative Boards
Logistics
PNG//smart sensors offer numerous advantages for the logistics industry: High speeds, long ranges, low black/white deviations, e.g. in storage boxes, no reciprocal influence of the sensors in tight spaces and low energy consumption. In addition, the parameterization of the sensors in de-energized state via NFC as well as the precisely aligned optics are further advantages of this product generation.

Industrie pharmaceutique
Grâce à la capacité des capteurs laser à détecter de manière précise les ampoules et les flacons transparents, les petites pièces telles que les seringues, les aiguilles ou les canules, la série PNG//smart convient parfaitement à une utilisation dans l’industrie pharmaceutique. En outre, IO-Link permet de mesurer la hauteur de piles d’emballages sous blister à des vitesses élevées.

Emballage
Les capteurs PNG//smart permettent de modifier automatiquement les produits et les lots via IO-Link 1.1. La détection à vitesses élevées de films transparents et brillants est l’une des forces de cette série de produits. Grâce à l’élimination d’arrière-plan, les capteurs détectent également les objets irréguliers, indépendamment de leur couleur, forme et surface.
