What is Convergent Beam Sensing?

Convergent beam sensors have a lens arrangement that concentrates the emitted light on an exact point in front of the sensor and focuses the receiver element on that same point. This produces a small, intense and well defined sensing area at a fixed distance from the sensor. Convergent sensors provide very high excess gain for sensing low reflective targets.

Area Four Advantages of Convergent Beam Sensors:

1. Very effective for small object detection
2. Great for accurate detection of radiused targets
3. Can be used in most mark sensing solutions
4. Can be used for accurate parts positioning
