Checker 101E uses patterns to detect and inspect parts, for reliability. Offers the simplicity and power of the original, plus it directly accepts encoder signals, eliminating the need for a PLC when tracking and rejecting parts on variable-speed production lines.
 
“The simple-to-use Checker 101 sensor radically changed the way sensor users detect parts or part features, eliminating the complex wiring, mounting, ladder logic programming, and precise part handling required when using multiple photoelectric sensors,” said Brian Phillips, VP, expert sensors. “By directly accepting encoder signals, the Checker 101E eliminates the cost and complexity of a PLC for part tracking and rejection on variable-speed lines. Unlike the shift register of a PLC, which requires programming, Checker’s shift register is automatic, enabling it to accurately track up to 4,000 parts between the inspection and rejection point.”
 
Acquires and processes over 500 images/sec., can detect and inspect parts on fast production lines. If inspection is not required, it can detect and track parts or webs for improved process control.
