UV SENSORS
TARGET DETECTION FOR AUTOMATION APPLICATIONS
New UV sensor identifies the presence of grease, glue, labels, wood, thread,
rubber, paint, UV ink, UV crayon, and more. Confirm manufacturing processes more
reliably than vision systems that cost ten times more. The UVX 300 luminescence
sensor with patented technology is the clear choice because:
- Unique numerical display lets you see the intensity of each reading. Now
it's easy to refine processes and hysteresis.
- 3 to 6 times the range of any competing sensor. Won't get bumped or dirtied
by target.
- Only UV sensor with both auto-teach and manual calibration. Easy for
low-skill operators, but able to be finely tuned.
- Adjustable UV light projection and high resolution allow pin-head size
detection.
- Fast and convenient integration. In one sensor you get both analog and
discrete output, auto-detect for PNP/NPN.
- Smallest and fastest on the market.
APPLICATIONS
FOR UV SENSORS IN MANUFACTURING |
The most UV-adoptive
industries are automotive and packaging, representing 60 and 20 percent of the
UV sensor applications, respectively.
In 80 percent of cases brought to EMX’s attention, UV technology is enabling
applications that could not be done using other sensor and vision technologies,
because they had trouble reliably detecting the presence of their targets, or
because the cost could not be justified.
Overall, UV sensor applications cover a wide range of industries. EMX has
released a list of manufacturing applications that are using or considering
using UV luminescence sensors.
- Automotive
Inspecting a muffler pipe for the presence of
a copper fitting. Detecting the presence of a UV-curable gasket. Verifying
correct assembly of connecting rod caps. Detecting operator ID tape on ignition
wire. To detect rivets marked with UV material. To make a screwdriver unit
activate when a UV mark is set on a connecting rod.
- Packaging
Detecting the presence of: glue on cartons,
surgical staple cartridges, glue on a paperboard background, a patch on a
web.
- Adhesive Tape
Measuring the amount of adhesive sprayed
on a roll of tape. When a nozzle gets clogged, the sensor provides feedback
leading to an alarm condition.
- Electronics Assembly
Detecting the presence of tape on
wiring harnesses.
- Food Packaging
On ring-tab cans, detecting a transparent
seal that prevents the seam from rusting. Detecting the presence of straws
attached to juice box containers, when the orientation of the straw is too
variable for a vision system. To detect date codes on packages.
- Pharmaceutical
Detecting the presence of a plastic
tamper-proof seal on a bottle.
- Textile
Detecting the presence of a fluorescent thread,
to verify that a seam has been sewn. Detecting yarn adhesive on fabric weavers.
- Furniture Making
Detecting the presence of excess glue
in a joint of wood furniture.
- General Industrial
Detecting the presence of paint on a
product, lubricant on bearings. To detect clear coatings on wired parts.
- Lumber
Inspecting lumber for the proper coating of clear
fungicide. Grading and sorting lumber prior to cutting and trimming.
- Cracks and Leaks
Used as tracers to find leaks of oils,
refrigerants.
