COLOR / MARK PANASONIC SENSORS

Overview

Panasonic provides Digital Color and Mark Sensors for high precision detection of any color, mark and vital indicators with high speed response times.

True color recognition Sensors, based on RGB LEDs can distinguish between minute differences in gloss and color shades, applicable for uses such as to detect labels, seals, plating and for color matching or sorting, etc.

The two-detection mode Digital Mark / Color Sensors have automatic optimal LED selection, built-in amplifier and are IP67 Rated.

1.Color Detection – Easy Setup, High Speed response time (1 ms), Excellent color detectability. Application uses include: Detect labels, seals on boxes, whether metal objects are plated.
2.Digital Mark Sensor – Can detect any Mark, IP67 Protection, Automatic optimal LED selection function, Two detection modes can be selected: color, Mark; Digital Display with Numerical Control, Compact. Ultra high speed mark response; color detection – high precision discrimination.

COLOR DETECTION FIBER SENSOR FZ-10

FZ-10 Color Detection Fiber Sensors are equipped with three LEDs – red, green and blue – as their light source. This contributes to a long Sensor life and a high immunity against disturbances through ambient light. The RGB components of each detected color are processed digitally, thus the smallest differences will be detected by this Sensor. Even white and yellow can be distinguished.

By pressing just a single button, the Sensor memorizes the inspected color as a reference. Allowable deviations from this target color can be set with a 16-step tolerance adjuster. Four different fibers with spot diameters from 1 to 8mm and different sensing ranges are available for this Color Sensor. With a response time of only 1ms, FZ-10 Color Detection Sensors are also suitable for high-speed color-checking applications.

DIGITAL MARK SENSOR LX-100

The LX-100 Series – a combined LED contrast and color Sensor – can be used both as a high-speed contrast sensor to quickly and reliably detect printer’s marks, for example, and as a high-precision color Sensor.

In contrast sensing mode, the Sensor automatically selects the optimum emitting LED during teach-in (static or dynamic teach-in method) from the transmitting light source (red, green and blue LEDs). With a response time of just 45µs, this Sensor is perfect for high processing speeds like those required in printing presses, for example. In color mode, an integrated microprocessor with a 12-bit A/D converter digitally processes the signals of the color to be detected in red, green and blue primary color components. This ensures that even the most minute color differences or merest of tints can be accurately distinguished.
