Your Benefit


Fast response time and fine resolution ensure reliable detection even at very high object speeds

Infrared light source provides excellent ambient light immunity

User-friendly setting via IO-Link, teach-in button, or plus/minus buttons

A wide range of different fork sizes enables flexible installation

Stable aluminum housing for use in harsh industrial environments

Thanks to IO-Link or external teach-in, the switching threshold can be adapted while the process is running, increasing process reliability

Easy to access data from the PLC via IO-Link

WFnext fork sensors are at work in the detection of labels, marks, double sheets, holes, edges, and various objects. Thanks to the design principle that sees both the sender and receiver integrated in a single housing, no adjustment is necessary. This easy-to-use sensor line includes fork widths between 2 mm and 120 mm with fork depths of 40 mm, 60 mm, and 95 mm. Extremely fast response times and fine resolution means that WFnext fork sensors from SICK can even detect small and flat objects, as well as those traveling at high speeds.

Applications


Detecting edges, holes, and objects in production processes at high speeds

Monitoring the presence of different objects

Detecting opaque labels

Fine positioning the body

Check of product height
