Heavy-duty fibre optics from Banner Engineering

November 2015 Enclosures, Cabling & Connectors

Banner Engineering has introduced its new heavy-duty Vantage Line fibre optics to complement its established fibre amplifier product family. Featuring a flexible 304 stainless steel tube, the polyethylene jacketed plastic fibre is protected from crushing or abrasion in harsh industrial environments.

To accommodate diverse applications, the Vantage Line fibres are available in eight different models, four with opposed sensing mode and four with diffuse sensing mode, in one and two metre options. All heavy-duty fibres are compatible with Banner’s existing plastic fibre amplifiers, including the DF-G family.

DF-G amplifiers deliver stable sensing performance with fast response rates. With a thermally stable and high performance electronic design, they feature dual display, digital readouts and an improved fibre clamp. They also offer complete user control, providing manipulation of all operating parameters, including switch point threshold, light operate or dark operate, various output timing functions, electronic gain level and sensor response speed.

Banner can now effectively serve a diverse range of industries and applications, including small part or wire break detection on electronics assembly machines, pill and caplet counting and high-speed detection for registration mark or product leading edge detection.
