Furthermore, OMRON's accumulation processing increases sensitivity by amplifying even the smallest amount of light reflected from the target. The manufacturing technology adjusts the position of the receiving lens on the sensor with micrometer accuracy,enabling reliable detection regardless of the target's color, material, and shape.
These technologies enable the E3AS-HL series sensors to reliably detect shiny, curved, and irregularly shaped automotive parts, as well as multi-colored and shiny food and packaging. The E3AS-HL series sensors can be used in the same locations as reflective photoelectric sensors and help reduce the time required to adjust both the sensor's position and angle of installation, as well as the threshold value.
The anti-fouling coating on the sensing surface ensures stable operation even in harsh environments (patent pending).
The learning curve and OLED display allow for easy, quick, and optimal setup.
(1) The CMOS laser sensor is a type of reflective photoelectric sensor. It uses the triangulation principle and consists of a laser emitter and a CMOS image sensor receiver.
(2) A micrometer is one-thousandth of a millimeter. 1 micrometer = 0.001 millimeters.
(3) "Patent pending" means that OMRON has applied for a patent in Japan, while "Patented" means that the patent has been granted in Japan (as of August 2019).
