Detecting traveling aluminum pallets
Controlling depth of drilling
Positioning object at welding station
SENSORS
(GX-F□U-J only)
It can be safely used even where welding
sparks (spatter) fly around.
It can reliably detect even aluminum
pallets because of its long
sensing range.
By detecting the dog, the sensor decides
the depth of the
drilled hole.

Note: The maximum operation distance stands for the maximum distance for which the sensor can detect the standard sensing object.
The stable sensing range stands for the sensing range for which the sensor can stably detect the standard sensing object even if there is an ambient
temperature drift and/or supply voltage fluctuation.
