Feature-packed colour sensor

September 2024 Sensors & Transducers

The SMARTEYE COLORWISETM True Colour Sensor from Vepac Electronics is the most feature-packed colour sensor available on the market today. Designed to also work as an instrument or spectrometer, this sensor can solve the most difficult colour applications at higher speeds than colour cameras or the closest priced competitive product. These sensors are used in industrial automation applications including quality control, object detection, sorting and classification in industries such as textiles, packaging, food processing, printing, environmental monitoring, and robotics.

The 4 Channel Monitor provides a visual confirmation of performance without having to switch channel selections or touch the sensor in any way. Providing a choice in speed versus resolution, the SMARTEYE COLORWISETM puts the controls of the performance of the sensor in the hands of the operator, allowing for more application solutions, and removing the limits that speed or resolution alone can offer.

With control over tolerance, light intensity, output configuration (NPN or PNP), timers, input configuration (Edge or Gate), the SMARTEYE COLORWISETM provides a tailored and customised solution for the most difficult colour sorting or inspection problems facing today’s packaging and production lines. The SMARTEYE COLORWISETM also comes equipped with four digital and three analogue outputs that not only help to sort products by colour, but also determine specific colour signatures.
