Banner Engineering has introduced the Q3X laser contrast sensor with the ability to detect up to 2000 events per second for reliable detection of parts, tools, pallets or registration marks with small contrast differences. The sensor has a small laser spot and is an excellent choice for part presence, tool-in-place or broken tool detection in stamping and machining centres.
Featuring a sensing range up to 300 mm, the Q3X is ideal for high-speed packaging and detection applications of small targets, such as registration marks on packaging, or verifying placement of black gaskets and O-rings on machined metal parts.
“The Q3X was designed for precise detection in harsh environments,” said Dennis Smith, technical marketing manager at Banner Engineering. “The bright laser spot and digital read-out allow machine builders to set up the sensor for their unique applications.”
Featuring a three-digit display, the Q3X provides high visibility of operating conditions from multiple angles, and for an intuitive user setup, it has two tactile buttons conveniently located below the display.
Designed with robust nickel-plated zinc die cast housing, this sensing device provides superior performance, even in environments with exposure to cutting fluids and oils. Sensors are also rated to IP67, IP68 and IP69K for enhanced protection to water submergence and high-pressure wash down.
