These sensors are highly sensitive measuring devices and are ideal for detecting dark colours. The outstanding features of this new product family include the shortest response times for high-speed applications and high colour sensitivity, in particular when it comes to dark colours and low-reflectivity objects. Even small colour differences can be detected, for example in quality control of textiles, leather or plastics, such as in the production of automobile seats.
The series BFS 27K colour sensors have three independent outputs. A teach-in procedure is used to set and configure the sensor. The settings are indicated on the sensor itself by a display. In the case of versions with RS 485 interface the individual outputs can also be displayed on a monitor using the appropriate software. To enable fine tuning, the colour sensors have various processing algorithms for colour type and intensity as well as 10 tolerance levels.
Colour sensors are widely used in the fields of robotics, automation and quality assurance, as well as in production processes. Quality assurance checking, selection of parts according to colour or sensing cable conductor wire colours are just some of the tasks the BFS 27K colour sensor was designed to handle.
