•Withthehelpofcontinuousthreshold adaptation or the autocollimation principle,highlytransparentobjects suchasfilmsandPETbottlesare reliablydetected
in the automated world, the aim is to minimize machine downtime. thanks to innovative continuous threshold adaptation, cleaning intervals are extended, thus increasing sensoravailability, overall systemavailability and productivity.

Standard reflectors (round and square)ThestandardreflectorsfromSICKdifferinsize,geometryandmountingoptions.Thelargeselectionofreflectorsindifferentsizesguarantees optimal sensor operation at all timesandperfectintegrationintosystems.
Reflectors are the indispensable counterpart for each photoelectric retro-reflective sensor. Together they form a reliable functional unit. reliable detection of objects can only be guaranteed, including under critical application condi tions, if both components are optimally coordinated with one another.
the scanning range and detection accuracy of a photoelectric retro-reflective sensor are impacted significantly by the quality and geometric size of the reflector used.
The larger the reflectors, the greater the performance reserve and the greater the sensor scanning range.
Reflectors for industrial sensors.
