High Performance Time-of flight Laser Measurement Sensors add io-Link
Banner’s popular long-range L-GAGE® LTF laser sensor is now available in models featuring two independently configurable discrete outputs and the IO-Link industrial protocol, which enables robust two-way communication between the sensor and a master device. LTF series sensors offer tremendous accuracy over long distances and provide reliable detection regardless of target color, material or reflectivity.
Key Benefits of LTF with IO-Link
•Remote configuration: Device parameters can be read and altered remotely, even while inspections are ongoing, enabling quick configuration and minimizing downtime for product changeover.
•Remote monitoring: Users can access sensor level data in real-time, make decisions based on that data, and receive real-time status alerts for rapid identification and resolution of problems.
•Extended diagnostics: IO-Link provides visibility into errors and health status for each device, allowing users to evaluate machine performance and diagnose problems without shutting down equipment.
•Simple device replacement: An IO-Link master device saves configuration dataand automatically updates new sensors; users can easily replace sensors without expert knowledge for configuration.
•Interface versatility: Measurement data is regularly sent from the LTF to an IO-Link master device, enabling analog output capabilities in a sensor with dual discrete outputs and no analog output.
The Applications include:
• Part-in-place verification
• Part profiling and positioning
• Roll diameter and web tension control
