4 W2S-2 – MINIATURE PHOTOELECTRIC SENSORS | SICK
SEES SO BLACK THAT EVERYTHING ELSE
FADES AWAY
Moving away from unit solutions to a sophisticated system. The W2S-2 product family impresses with a
wide range of variants to ensure that a precise solution can be provided for each and every requirement
(material handling, robotics, automatic assembly machines, pharmaceutical industry).
transparent objects such as lms and ampules can be detected even when space is
at an absolute premium. The WL2GS-2 boasts the smallest housing in the world for
applications of this nature. In addition, it achieves maximum performance with minimum
reector surfaces since the intensive and brilliant light spot of the new PinPoint 2.0 LED
is sharply concentrated. The WL2GS-2 is also very exible and suitable for use in a wide
range of applications: Operational statuses can be selected via IO-Link e. g. the presence
detection of lm include AutoAdapt.
The rst photoelectric proximity sensor with linear light spot in an ultra-compact
housing supports a wide variety of solutions. The linear light spot combines ma-
ximum precision and a highly repeatable switching point to ensure that the swit-
ching signal is constant throughout the processing time of an object, even if gaps,
grooves, or openings are present.
when straightforward and highly accurate setting of the switching distance is requi-
red. The photoelectric proximity sensor is ideal for detecting at objects on belts,
for example.
The V-optics support reliable detection even of at, highly transparent, or glossy
objects such as lms, display screens, mirrors, or panes measuring up to 20 mm.
