Performance that makes a difference
Long operational lifetime
Ensuring that products do not fail during
production and require only minimal service
attention enhances productivity and reduces
maintenance costs.
1. Models with enhanced protection and tested
resistance against harsh environments
• Tested resistance against aggressive
chemicals, extreme temperatures, low
pressure (vacuum), mechanical abuse
2. Preventing fiber breakage
• Housing construction preventing protruding
cables (e.g. square shape, side view models)
• High flex fibers with 1 mm bending radius for
close wall mounting
• Robot fibers tested with more than one million
bending cycles
• Protective metal or plastic tubes
3. Operational stability
• LED power control against aging effects
• Auto-threshold control for enhanced
compensation of power decrease, e.g. through
dirt on lenses
Easy to set up and adjust
With minimal time required for mounting the
fibers the productivity can be enhanced for
machine builders and the easy setting of the
amplifiers simplifies production changes for
machine users.
1. Easy-teach amplifiers or manual adjusters
• Easy manual adjustment by potentiometer
• One-button auto teach for in-process dynamic
teaching, or two-point object teaching
2. Wide range of easy-to-mount fibers
• One-screw-mount fibers with hexagonal back
• Square shapes for simple surface mounting
• Side view for simple alignment
• Application-optimised housings (e.g. fork
shape for label and foil detection, tube for
liquid level detection, etc.)
High accuracy in smallest size
OMRON’s precise manufacturing processes with
inspection system supported alignment of the
fibers and lenses achieve minimal tolerance
variations in all standard models and allow the
detection of the smallest objects and height
differences of less than 100 μm.
• High beam axis accuracy for side view models
through precise fiber bending or angle mirror
surface treatment
• High spot evaluation precision on coaxial
models through equal fiber distribution
• Accurate distance setting through precise lens
and beam alignment
