The Top Ten Types of Sensors Most Used in Automation Equipment
1. Intelligent vision sensors: mainly used to detect breakage, spots, blemishes and labels, as well as vision-guided angle, positioning, gripping, depalletizing and palletizing — very powerful.
2. Fixed 1D/2D barcode readers and handheld wireless barcode readers.
3. High-frequency RFID readers and communication gateways.
4. Intelligent color sensors, with optional sensing heads for different detection distances.
5. Integrated registration mark sensors, often used to detect specific marks or spots on objects.
6. Laser measurement displacement sensors — simple to use, stable and reliable, with outstanding performance.
7. Light curtain sensors, divided into safety light curtains and measuring/detecting light curtains.
8. Intelligent fiber optic sensors, with different fiber optic probe models selectable according to needs. Probes are divided into reflective and through-beam types.
9. Intelligent detection photoelectric sensors, with fast response, low power consumption and long detection distance.
10. General-purpose proximity sensors, with strong environmental tolerance, widely used in machinery, pharmaceutical, chemical, metallurgy and other industries.
