Forked sensors

Precise and fast detection - even at high web speeds - and the reliable detection of a wide range of material combinations and surfaces. These are the criteria professional sensors must meet for labeling applications. And here we offer the right solution for every application with our wide line of different designs and operating principles, from light to ultrasonics.

Forked sensors
 

Forks for label detection.

Reliable detection in a wide range of different applications

Precise and fast detection – even at high web speeds – and the reliable detection of a wide range of material combinations and surfaces. These are the criteria professional sensors must meet for labelling applications. And here we offer the right solution for every application with our wide line of different designs and operating principles, from light to ultrasonics.

GS 61

The smallest forked photoelectric sensor of industrial quality

  • Optical forked photoelectric sensor in slim-line design with 3 mm mouth width for exact detection of labels on base material.
  • Simple sensitivity adjustment via multiturn potentiometer or optionally via teach-in function
  • Slimline design (reduced fork height) for installation directly at the dispensing edge
  • Removable operating head for comfortable potentiometer adjustment
  • Without tool
  • Smallest dimensions of all industrial forked photoelectric sensors with an excellent price/performance ratio

GS 63

First-class technology in the new design

This optical forked photoelectric sensor in metal housing with a 3mm mouth width, 60mm mouth depth and low response time is ideally suited for wider labels.

  • High switching frequency and short response time guarantee very good repeatability
  • Easy adjustment via lockable teach button or teach input
  • Slimline design (reduced fork height) for installation directly at the dispensing edge
  • ALC (auto level control) function: maximum performance reserve via automatic online optimization of the switching threshold
  • Warning output for the display of teach or function errors

GSU 14C

Universal ultrasonics

Ultrasonic forked sensor for reliable detection and universal application. With its large mouth width, this ultrasonic forked sensor is also suitable for fan-fold flyers and booklets.

  • Reliable detection of foil labels on foil carriers, foil labels on paper carriers, paper labels on paper carriers, metallic foil labels and thin metal foils.

IGSU 14C

The best for maximum operational safety

Worth special mention are EasyTeach (press button – dispense labels – done!), ALC function and a warning output for signalisation of teach or function errors. With the large mouth width, the forked sensor is also suitable for fan-fold flyers or booklets.

  • Forked sensor for reliable detection of foil labels on foil carriers or paper carriers, paper labels on paper carriers, metallic foil labels and thin metal foils
  • Model for the reliable detection of splice on paper web or plastic web
  • easyTeach function: press button – dispense labels – done
  • ALC function (auto level control): maximum performance reserve via automatic online optimisation of the switching threshold
