Baumer is introducing two new sensor types to the market: the \u201eAlphaProx\u201c distance sensors with IO-Link interface and the chemically robust M12 ultrasonic sensors (photo) for use in bottling applications.<\/p>\n

The AlphaProx inductive sensors with IO-Link<\/strong> are available in a cylindrical design in sizes with diameters from 6.5 millimetres up to size M30. They detect objects and measure distances over large measuring ranges of up to 18 millimetres with micrometre precision. They can be used for applications as diverse as Recording batch sizes<\/strong>which Flexible control of vibratory conveyors<\/strong> or the distance measurement of gripper jaws. Two switching points, counter values, the switching frequency and other analysis data can be evaluated directly.<\/p>\n

Through extended Parameter options<\/strong> With IO-Link, the sensors can be optimally adjusted to the respective application. IO-Link also enables sensors to be replaced according to the plug-and-play principle without the need for manual parameterisation.<\/p>

As a particularly useful product advantage of the sensors, Baumer emphasises the Evaluation of secondary data<\/strong> such as temperature, supply voltage, operating time or switching cycles. This can be used for predictive maintenance tasks.<\/p>\n

Sensor recognises bottles standing close together<\/h2>\n

Ultrasonic sensors<\/strong> recognise objects regardless of their colour and transparency and are therefore very well suited for Presence detection of bottles<\/strong> in bottling plants. A disadvantage to date has been that the sensor front is sensitive to chemical cleaning agents. Baumer presents the new, chemically robust M12 miniature proximity switches \u201eUNAR 12\u201c with Parylene coating.<\/p>\n

The UNAR-12 sensors<\/strong> are protected from hot water vapour or chemical cleaning agents thanks to the parylene-coated sensor front and an FDA-compliant stainless steel full metal housing without weak points such as LEDs. The design is compact, with a diameter of just twelve millimetres. The sensor and receiver are located in the same housing. No reflector or second sensor needs to be fitted.<\/p>\n

The Sonic lobe<\/strong> is very narrow, so that the sensor recognises individual bottles even when they are very close together. At less than six milliseconds, the response time is also very short, which enables high throughput speeds.<\/p>\n
