Photoelectric sensors
13 September 2015
OID and O5D photoelectric sensors from ifm electronic offer reliable long-range background suppression and colour-independent detection with easy switch point setting.

The PMDLine sensors even detect shiny surfaces such as stainless steel without difficulty. Both the OID and O5D will sense an object at a distance of 2m, even against a background, and as such are used to replace retro-reflective sensors.
The new developments employ time-of-flight technology to combine the advantages of long ranges, reliable background suppression, visible red light and high excess gain all in one unit.
