Sensor expert Baumer fully exploits the potential of ToF technology to merge high efficiency with outstanding performance. The new models OT200 and OT330 set standards in their respective housing class. With OT200 Baumer has developed the most compact time-of-flight sensor that is characterized by the smallest blind zone range (<2 mm on ultra black) at yet the longest range (up to 2 meters) in miniature design. Like the slightly larger OT330, OT200 offers extremely easy installation and low maintenance effort. OT330 features a long range up to 2.5 meters, and thanks to the excellent price-performance ratio is a particularly efficient all-rounder in multifaceted applications.
High-performance ToF sensors for maximum efficiency
Like every Baumer product, the new ToF sensors stand out with extreme user friendliness at any engineering stage – whether planning, installation, commissioning or operation. This is ensured by the proven Baumer 3D CAD data with integrated beam path, the qTarget feature for optical axis alignment and the convenient and reproducible teaching feature qTeach. The SmartReflect variants (light barrier without reflector) are particularly efficient since they do not require any reflector that has to be installed and maintained, which is a further reduction to the total cost of ownership. The Alignment Guide, a red LED beam for easy infrared laser alignment is another valuable tool. Compared to other sources of light used for detection, the infrared laser provides particular benefits: less dependent on color, surface, structure and ambient light and its better resilience against dust, smoke and spray.
Time-of-flight sensors are very appropriate for detecting light-absorbing and reflective objects of any shape or structure (e.g. solar cells or car tires). They reliably detect any object geometry from virtually any angle and installation position. The new Baumer ToF sensors with special optics and sophisticated algorithms take this technology to the next level. Typical applications can be found in intralogistics, equipment engineering as well as wafer and semiconductor production.
New OT200 and OT330 sensors add two performant, compact and efficient sensor variants to the Baumer ToF portfolio. Now you are offered sensors with a range from 0 to 2.5 meters utilizing different light sources (red laser, infrared laser) of varied sizes and designs – from miniature to hygiene and wash down.
