Pushing the limits? Yes - with the world's first sensor to use the advantages of radar technology in the area of 𝗻𝗲𝗮𝗿-𝗳𝗶𝗲𝗹𝗱 𝗼𝗯𝗷𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝗱𝗲𝘁𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗺𝗲𝗮𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁. With this new #radar sensor in a compact M30 housing it is possible to solve applications where ultrasonic or photoelectric #sensors reach their limits. 🍾 Just think about detecting 100,000 bottles per hour in an environment where cleaning agents are in use. 🚗 Or reliably detecting tires (matte black surface) during manufacturing. For #automation experts: It comes along with a switching frequency of up to 1kHz, an accuracy and resolution of down to 1 mm, plus analog or #IOLink interface. Beyond that it has some nice features. 1️⃣ Insensitive to magnetic or electric fields 2️⃣ Robust against dust, dirt, moisture, direct light or darkness 3️⃣ Measurements through various materials possible For more information and insights, just visit ➡ https://lnkd.in/eEx-b5jJ. Or contact our expert Robert Tilch. #Balluff

Do you need to detect the presence of objects in your application over a long distance and output the measured values via IO-Link? The ODT3CL1-2M from Leuze UK is a diffuse sensor with background suppression and achieves an operating range of two meters thanks to time-of-flight technology. This saves you time and money during procurement, installation and commissioning as well as during operation. The two independently adjustable switching points enable shuttles in #intralogistics, for example, to optimally adjust and vary their speed in order to quickly transport goods to the target position.

🌟 Two major trends in microbolometer devices 🌟 A microbolometer is a type of uncooled thermal sensor used in infrared imaging devices. It detects infrared radiation and converts it into an electrical signal to create a thermal image. There are two major trends in microbolometer devices. 🔷 First, smaller pixels. Smaller pixels mean smaller device size. And smaller pixels are also needed to increase the resolution of thermal cameras. 🔷 Second, improving manufacturing processes. The industry strives to improve manufacturing processes to increase yield and reduce cost, encouraging the thermal imaging technology to use widely in various industries. ✨ Learn more: https://lnkd.in/gUhH8p-4 #RaytronMicroelectronics #Raytron #LongWaveInfraredSensors #ThermalImagingTechnology #UncooledThermalSensor #Microbolometer #Detector #Sensor
