The FS Fork Sensor is simple to use. The metallic housing is ultra-rugged and comes in a wide range of gap sizes. The fork style design is easy to align and simple to adjust.
Fork sensors are used for detecting exceedingly small objects and for counting tasks in feeding, assembly, and handling applications. They are also used for belt edge and guide control.
The narrow light beam and fast response time makes this type of sensor reliable and well suited for these applications.
Installation is easy and requires no time-consuming process to align the transmitter and receiver. Made of rugged aluminum, long-term stability of the optical axis guarantees alignment between transmitter and receiver will be maintained.
