We are excited to announce the launch of our latest innovation: the Phototelectric Miniature M5 sensor with Sapphire glass and IO-Link. Designed for precision, durability, and versatility, this compact sensor sets a new standard for reliable detection in challenging industrial environments.
Built to Perform, Built to Last
At the heart of the M5 sensor is a Sapphire lens, engineered to deliver excellent optical clarity even in dusty or abrasive conditions. Its surface is exceptionally resistant to wear and scratches, while also being easy to clean—ensuring consistent performance over time.
Despite its miniature size, the sensor provides a narrow cylindrical light beam, allowing for precise detection in tight or hard-to-reach spaces. Recessed mounting options further enhance protection, making the M5 a robust choice for demanding applications.
Configurable Sensing with ASIC
Equipped with the ASIC platform, the sensor offers advanced IO-Link connectivity for easy teach or sensitivity adjustment and configuration. This ensures optimal detection performance across a wide range of materials and surface finishes, with reduced sensitivity to color or reflectivity variations.
Typical Applications
The M5 sensor’s precision and adaptability make it ideal for industries where accuracy is critical:
- Thin material detection: Perfect for monitoring the passage of sheets, foils, or plastic films on transfer tables with outstanding reliability.
- Surface differentiation: Effective at identifying weld points or subtle differences in surface appearance.
A Compact Sensor with Maximum Impact
Combining cutting-edge optics and rugged durability, the Phototelectric Miniature M5 sensor with Sapphire glass and IO-Link is designed to deliver long-lasting, high-performance detection—even in the toughest production environments.
