26/07/14 - Datalogic Automation introduces the new S100 miniature photoelectric sensor series offering universal mounting and competitive pricing.Incorporating standard optical functions, the new competitively priced sensor offers the ideal detection solution for applications in automated manufacturing machines and logistic lines that require multiple sensors.Measuring 20x32x12 mm as standard and featuring a unique layout with four mounting holes, the S100 miniature photoelectric sensors offer a universal solution for all mounting needs while also facilitating quick and simple installation. With no adjustment required, the S100 series reduces set-up time and eliminates the risk of tampering with the equipment. This distinctive feature in the S100 can be particularly useful in applications where a large volume of photoelectric sensors are being installed, requiring simple and fast maintenance. The S100 miniature photoelectric sensor series includes Through-beam at 12m; Retroreflective at 8m; and Polarised Retroreflective at 5m and 2m; Diffuse proximity at 30cm and 50cm; Fixed Focus at 70mm; and Background Suppression at 100mm. All models are offered with an M8 connector or 2m cable, with either NPN or PNP outputs.The S100 miniature photoelectric sensors typically find application in automatic machines and packaging lines in the manufacturing industry as well as conveyors, sorting lines and automated warehouses in the logistics industry.

22/07/14 - Global leader in automatic data capture and industrial automation markets, Datalogic Automation has entered into a partnership with SMI Group, one of the world’s largest producers of bottling plants and packaging machines, for the integration of Datalogic sensors into SMI’s equipment.Datalogic Automation is a world-class producer of bar code readers, mobile computers, sensors, vision systems and laser marking equipment.SMI will integrate Datalogic sensors into their bottling and packaging machines, delivered to major corporations in the food & beverage sectors such as Carlsberg, Coca Cola, Danone, Diageo, Inbev, Heinz, Heineken, Nestlè, PepsiCo, SABMiller and Unilever. The agreement will also enable the two companies to collaborate on the development of new solutions to meet and anticipate the future needs of customers. Datalogic was selected both for the excellent quality of their technology solutions as well as their ability to deliver a comprehensive range of products. Apart from supplying photoelectric, inductive, capacitive and ultrasound sensors, Datalogic also offers safety barriers, vision systems and laser marking solutions. Datalogic will supply the IS inductive proximity sensors, the M18 tubular photoelectric sensors in the S15 series, the SR21 slot sensors, the S3Z miniature sensors, the S8 compact sensors, the S7 fibre optic amplifiers and US18 ultrasound sensors.The IS series offers a complete range of sensors from 6.5mm to 30mm diameter, with the ability to detect metal objects at distances from 1.5mm to 20mm. The M18 standard tubular photoelectric sensors in the S15 series include a complete range of optic functions in diffuse, retro-reflective or through-beam mode, with plastic or stainless versions, IP69K protection, and certified for use in the food and bottling industry. The SR21 slot sensors enable label detection at high resolution and speed, with response times of only 20 µs and detection frequencies up to 25 kHz. The S3Z series includes a complete range of miniature photoelectric sensors, with budget models for basic applications and laser emission models for the detection of small objects or at high speed.The S8 series of compact sensors is used for more advanced applications, especially in the detection of contrast, luminescence, transparent objects, and diffuse mode with background suppression. The sensor’s IP69K rating makes it suitable for the food and bottling industry. The S7 series fibre optic amplifiers are used for the detection of small objects or in areas difficult to access using normal photoelectric sensors with integrated optics. The US18 ultrasound sensors offer the most suitable alternative to photoelectric sensors in terms of transparent object detection such as for plastics, glass or liquids, or when optical reflections are involved. 

08/07/14 - Datalogic Automation has introduced a new line of ultrasonic sensors featuring an M18 right angle mounting barrel housing as standard.Datalogic’s US18 ultrasonic sensors achieve the foreground and background suppression function, allowing direct detection of the object within a selected range, setting minimum and maximum distance limits through a teach-in pushbutton or a remote teach input. The detection range is set manually or automatically thanks to the auto-window function, covering a maximum detection area from 50 to 500 mm.Datalogic’s US18 ultrasonic sensors are suitable for clear object detection, inspection on transparent or highly reflective film, and liquid level measurement applications.The new M18 right angle US18 sensor combined with the existing M18 tubular US18 enhances the Datalogic US series, offering a more comprehensive range of solutions in a standard M18 barrel mounting for applications such as liquid level measurement where photoelectrics struggle because of target translucence and environmental light reflection.Key features of Datalogic’s US18 ultrasonic sensors include standard M18 mounting barrel housing; 50…500 mm background and foreground suppression; teach-in push-button or remote input for distance range setting; auto-window function; standard M12 4-pole connector; PNP or NPN outputs; and IP67, NEMA 6P rating.
