FAQs of LABLE SENSOR:
Q: How does the LABLE SENSOR detect label gaps during operation?
A: The LABLE SENSOR uses infrared LED technology to identify the spaces between labels as they pass through its 3 mm slot gap. The sensor differentiates between labels and gaps based on changes in transmitted light, ensuring precise gap detection for accurate label positioning.
Q: What are the main benefits of using this sensor in labeling machines?
A: Key benefits include high accuracy (0.5 mm), fast response time (<1 ms), adjustable sensitivity for various materials, and robust construction for long service life. These features enable consistent label counting, efficient position marking, and reliable operation in demanding production environments.
Q: When should I select dark or light operating mode for detection?
A: Dark and light switching modes are selectable to accommodate different label types and substrate colors. Use dark mode for detecting transparent labels on backing, and light mode for opaque or reflective labels. Adjustment can be made via an onboard potentiometer for sensitivity.
Q: Where can the LABLE SENSOR be installed within automated systems?
A: The sensor offers bracket or panel mounting options, allowing flexible positioning directly on labeling machines or conveyer lines. Its 2-meter cable supports convenient integration in various locations within automated packaging or labeling setups.
Q: What steps are involved in setting up and calibrating the sensor?
A: Installation involves securely mounting the sensor, connecting it via 3-wire or 4-wire interface to power (12-24V DC) and control systems, and adjusting sensitivity using the potentiometer. The built-in LED status indicator signals successful gap detection and assists with setup validation.
Q: What makes this sensor suitable for industrial environments?
A: With a rugged metal and ABS build, IP54 dust and water resistance, EMI/RFI protection, and certified to CE standards, the LABLE SENSOR is engineered to perform reliably in manufacturing and packaging environments, even with high humidity (35%-85% RH) and wide temperature ranges.
