Sick Contrast Sensors 13 mm, , PUSH/PULL, 100 mA, 10 → 30 V dc, IP67

White LED or RGB LED
High gray line resolution
Very large dynamic range means reliable detection of contrasts on glossy materials
25 kHz switching frequency
Display for easy sensor adjustment
2-point and dynamic teach-in
Manual switching threshold adjustment
Light/dark switching

High switching frequency for use in quick machine processes with high switching accuracy requirements
Display and flexible sensor settings for easy sensor handling and user-friendly operation
High gray line resolution enables the detection of very small contrast differences and high-gloss materials - high process stability and fewer downtimes
Various teach-in processes for ideal sensor and process setting in different applications
Manual switching threshold adjustment supports stable material detection and individual sensor adaption to different contrasts

High performance for universal application in a range of applications: The new KTS Core in modern design with white LED or RGB LED and VISTAL® housing impresses with its switching frequency and gray line resolution, different teach-in variants and manual switching threshold adjustment. A response time of 20 μs and a jitter of 10 μs ensure reliable and accurate detection of contrast differences, e.g. in print marks, even on high-gloss materials. Thanks to various teach-in processes and manual switching threshold adjustment, commissioning is more flexible and detection more stable. The KTS Core detects even the smallest differences in contrast and is therefore well-suited for use in a wide range of applications.

Applications in which contrast is a decisive distinguishing feature
Print mark detection for controlling the cutting process
Print control in the print and paper industry
Positioning of tubes when filling
Label alignment on bottles
Monitoring of wafer surfaces
Roll end monitoring
Contrast mark detection
