Vision sensors in Omron’s new FQ range are designed to deliver clear images and offer simple installation and set up. They feature one-touch control via a simple and intuitive icon menu system that eliminates the need for complex instructions and specialist knowledge.
Employ HDR (high dynamic range) technology, the sensors are capable of full colour processing using built-in polarising and halation filters and integrated high-intensity LED lighting. These features enable stable inspection even with highly reflective, low contrast and other ‘difficult targets’. They also cope easily with piece-to-piece variation between targets and with target misalignment.
As an aid to integration with modern industrial control systems, Omron FQ vision sensors feature industry-standard connections for trigger and I/O signals, as well as Ethernet connectivity. For applications requiring more than one vision sensor, multiple units can readily be networked together and controlled from a single point. All models have an IP67 ingress protection rating making them suitable for use in tough operating environments.
