There is simply no space for conventional sensors in many applications. No problem for the F 10. It fits into almost any space. Whether in handling and positioning applications, during the production of solar cells, or for the placement of semiconductor components – an F 10 is capable of maximum performance even in the most difficult of installation situations. Thus the photoelectric proximity sensor with background suppression – just 21.1 × 14.6 × 8 mm³ in size and weighing only 3 grams – even fits into a robot gripper without being a burden. Its precisely adjustable background suppression allows flexible teach-in for the most varied of applications, and nothing can distract it from the target object. Even bright or highly reflective machine parts in the background have no effect on switching behavior. F 10 sensors have all the robustness of bigger sensors thanks to their glass-fibre-reinforced plastic housings and tension-resistant cables.
