Increase speed and positioning accuracy, even around corners, with the OLM.The OLM optical linear measurement sensor determines its absolute position using a bar code strip mounted along the length of travel – up to 10 km. The bar code strip can be placed along a curve, incline, decline or straight line. The OLM is used for high speed, high precision positioning of overhead cranes, rail and transfer cars, and other vehicles. |

Slimmest Non-Safety Light Grid Designed to Save Space and MoneyUsing only 8mm of space for the optics, the SLG is the slimmest automation light grid on the market. Designed to save space, it can be hidden inside machines, frames, doors, and anywhere else space and aesthetics are desired. In addition to its small size and simple configuration interface, the SLG is also the lowest cost solution for detecting an object as it moves through an area. |
