Today, industrial automation is no longer imaginable without robots. The VISOR Robotic vision sensor from Sensopart acts as the ‘eye’ of the robot and is used worldwide in image-guided robotics applications. The most recent development provides problem-free connection between the vision sensor and a Yaskawa robot. The VISOR Robotic is part of the extensive VISOR […]
The VISOR Robotic vision sensor from Sensopart makes the set-up of robotic applications even faster and easier, acting as the ‘eye’ of the robot. And now the VISOR Robotic URCap enables direct data exchange between VISOR Robotic and the UR robotic systems. The VISOR Robotic is part of the extensive VISOR vision sensor family. With […]
Sensopart says its new VISOR UV vision sensor will open up new application possibilities in robotic automation. The sensor’s integrated UV illumination can evaluate markings, inscriptions and codes that are invisible to the human eye. Inks, lacquers, chalks and adhesives enriched with luminescent substances – so-called luminophores – are invisible to the human eye, only […]
New functions for the Code Reader and a revamped monitoring software with enhanced statistical functions are among the additional features SensoPart’s VISOR vision sensors received from an extensive annual software upgrade. “Our users are particularly impressed by the new design of SensoWeb,” says Marcus Koslik, product manager for vision at SensoPart. This software, which is […]
SensoPart has expanded its subminiature sensor series. The range now offers LED sensors, in addition to laser sensors, including a proximity switch with adjustable background suppression and a blue light version for strongly light-absorbing objects. The LED proximity switch FT 10-RH is a special highlight amongst the new sensors: it offers adjustable background suppression which […]
