Different Types of Positioning Systems in Automation
In this blog post, we look at four different types of positioning systems and where they are most commonly used in automation …
Data Matrix Positioning System PXV versus PCV—What’s the Difference?
Pepperl+Fuchs released the next generation of Data Matrix positioning—the PXV series. How does this Data Matrix positioning system differ from the proven PCV absolute positioning system?
3 Factors that Influence Double Sheet Detection
Double sheet sensors are used to monitor layers of materials as they are fed into machines. While the default settings for Pepperl+Fuchs’ double sheet sensors are suitable for over 90% of all usable materials, it is important to consider the following factors before choosing which settings to use: environmental conditions, material characteristics, and alignment accuracy. Each of these can affect measurement accuracy in double sheet detection and must be accounted for.
Three Ultrasonic Sensors for Effective Level Measurement
Storage tanks and silos in many different industries require overfill prevention and continuous level measurement to prevent equipment damage and downtime. This means a broad range of materials, such as chemicals, sludge, and gravel, must be reliably detected to maintain optimal process flows. Ultrasonic sensors from Pepperl+Fuchs are designed to detect and measure the fill level of liquids and solids, no matter their storage location.
How to Align the Sensing Face of the Inductive Sensor VariKont
The inductive sensors of the VariKont series are available in different housings. In this blog post, we explain how you can quickly and easily align the sensing face depending on the design.
Inclination Sensors: Pointing Solar Power in the Right Direction
Solar power is one of the most important answers to the question of renewable energy. Pepperl+Fuchs' high-precision inclination sensors can make solar power plants even more productive ...
Can Ultrasonic Double Sheet Sensors Be Used for Label Detection?
Ultrasonic double sheet sensors help ensure continuous, error-free processes in a range of industrial applications. They are used to prevent more than one layer of material from being fed into a machine. The same technology behind double sheet detection can also be applied to label detection applications.
Boosting Productivity with the Help of Laser Barcode Scanners
Laser barcode scanners have been used in material handling applications for decades. It is an integral part of routing boxes down a conveyor line. Read this blog to find out more about the different types of laser barcode readers.
