December 9, 2013. Keyence has introduced its LR-T Series multipurpose laser sensor, which complements the company's sensor lineup. Potentially limiting factors like target characteristics do not affect the LR-T’s detection ability, so it can be used in a range of applications.
The LR-T’s high level of detection ability is due to its Time of Flight (TOF) technology and custom integrated circuit. The LR-T provides consistently stable detection over long or short distances, regardless of target surface type, color, or finish. Even environmental factors like ambient light, mist, or excessive dust will not affect the LR-T’s detection ability.
An OLED display screen shows the operator all of the important values needed for setup, calibration, and operation. Intuitive menus make navigation through functions and settings fast and simple. A large, bright indicator light that can be seen from any angle specifies the status of the sensor to the operator.
Advanced features like an adjustable beam spot and application-specific detection modes allow the LR-T to be configured and tuned to maximize performance in any situation, while its long-distance capability allows the sensor to be mounted out of the way. Additionally, the LR-T’s compact and durable metal housing boasts an IP65/IP67 enclosure rating, making it suitable for both wash-down and other harsh environments.
