SICK (Minneapolis, MN), one of the world?s leading manufacturers of sensors, safety systems, machine vision, and automatic identification products for factory and logistics automation, announced the launch of its Z Photoelectric Sensors and the introduction of the next generation of ELF Photoelectric Sensors.

 

Whether customers choose a standard front mount or a spherical ball mount, when combined with a swivel bracket, these low-cost sensors are infinitely adjustable. This flexibility makes the ELF and Z Sensors suitable for almost any presence detection application on conveyor lines, packaging machines, bin controls and hands-free systems. They are rated IP 67 for harsh environments. The ELF and Z are both assembled in the United States, which allows SICK to customize the sensors (cable cut to length, addition of different connectors, brackets, customer-specific cable label, bulk pack, kit with reflector/bracket, etc.), reducing customers? material and labor costs, and providing greater flexibility.
