Contrast detection using TwinEye-Technology in the tried-and-tested housing
Outstanding performance for a variety of applications, even in difficult conditions: The KTX contrast sensor with familiar hole pattern, high-precision RGB LED and VISTAL® housing impresses with TwinEye-Technology, color mode, high switching frequency, excellent grayscale resolution, 7-segment display, and IO-Link. The response time of 10 µs and a jitter of 5 µs ensure accurate detection of contrast differences, even at high machine speeds. The various teach-in procedures, integrated color mode, and variable sensor settings ensure greater flexibility during commissioning and increased process stability. The KTX contrast sensor provides additional diagnostics and analysis data via IO-Link. The KTX contrast sensor – does the basics and even more.
