SICK’s GLARE sensor recognises and differentiates objects on the basis of their gloss in order to control production processes. The sensor analyses the spatial distribution of reflected light using Delta-S technology, which allows the sensor to determine the gloss level of flat object surfaces and to differentiate between objects of differing gloss levels.
The measurement result is transmitted to the process controls either via two digital switching outputs or IO-Link. Several operating modes are available, making the sensor suitable for a range of applications.
The combination of intelligent signal evaluation algorithms, the multisensor arrangement and sensitivity adjustments ensures increased operational safety in industrial applications. The sensor’s IO-Link interface enables the product to be integrated into the machine controller, featuring automatic, process-oriented configuration and online diagnostics.
