Material Handling

ToughSonic Ultrasonic Sensors Provide Non-Contact Material Handling Support

ToughSonic® ultrasonics are utilized in hundreds of factories throughout the world. Senix sensors are vital in material handling, process control, and object positioning systems by providing non-contact detection and distance measurement.

 

They detect object presence, position, and level for various applications such as conveyor systems, robotic arms, and forklifts.

 

Non-contact sensors measure without handling the material or object. Measurements are typically captured from above, but the sensors can be installed horizontally in open air for positioning applications. 

 

ToughSonic® sensors can be configured to react in as quickly as 5 milliseconds in the case of an incident or critical error.

Configuration Made Simple

Senix ultrasonic sensors contain over 80 user-configurable settings that can be customized to the user's needs through SensorViewâ„¢ setup software.

 

Customers can alter individual sensor settings to meet their specific object positioning, material handling, and environmental needs. Settings are stored within each sensor's memory, making cloning or duplication a breeze. No recalibration needed!

 

Simple level controls can be created with only a sensor and external relay option. Scale up operations easily when employing and connecting MULTIPLE ToughSonic sensors.
