BWML Series - Line Beam Mapping Sensors

BWML Series Line Beam Mapping Sensors

The BWML series line beam mapping sensors minimize non-detection areas with line beam detection. The sensors allow easy installation as the optical axis does not need to be located exactly where the glass substrate is located. The sensors support CC-Link and EtherCAT communication protocols. The sensors provide the increased convenience with diffuse reflective type.

  • Minimize Non-detection Area with Line Beam Sensing Method

    The diffuse reflective line beam method minimizes non-detection area. This method also allows easy installation as the optical axis does not need to be located exactly where the glass substrate is located.
