IO-Link allows full configuration of the EZ-ARRAY operating parameters and beam status monitoring. When connected to an IO-Link Master, configuration and measurement data can be communicated to a host controller on the field bus network.
- Applications include edge and center-guiding, loop tension control, hole sizing, parts counting and on-the-fly product sizing and profiling
- Closely spaced infrared beams detect objects as small as 5 mm wide; edge resolution is 2.5 mm
- Controller functionality is built into the receiver, so basic setup requires no controller, software, or PC
- Configuration options include 14 measurement modes, three scanning methods, two analog and two discrete outputs and a serial output
- Range is 4 meters
- Array heights range from 150 to 2400 mm
