There’s a growing need for precise and fast detection in modern manufacturing. High-precision manufacturing in particular requires accurate detection of contaminants or defects in products like pharmaceuticals or electronics. UV luminescence sensors are a reliable and cost-effective solution, and EMX offers a full range of options that suit the needs of various applications. Let’s take a closer look at the real-world applications where our UVX series excels.
The Benefits of Using Luminescence Sensors
Our UVX luminescence sensors offer a cost advantage, as well as high sensitivity and fast response. These solutions are also suitable for both long-range and high-speed automation, a definitive asset in the modern manufacturing world that relies on efficiency.
There are several key industries that benefit from UVX sensors, including:
- Packaging and labeling: Luminescence sensors are ideal for detecting UV inks, as well as invisible marks used for anti-counterfeit and tracking. They also aid in high-speed detection, which is suitable for automated bottling and packaging.
- Paper and film manufacturing: Our UVX sensors monitor optical brighteners to confirm quality of paper and plastic films, while also ensuring uniform brightness.
- Textile industry: Our sensors identify luminescent threads woven into fabrics for product tracking, which enhances quality control and defect detection, and allows for quick setup.
- Wood processing: Here, our products detect the presence of grease, paint, or oil coatings in lumber treatment lines, ensuring full coverage for fire or water proofing. The UVX’s extended range prevents contamination in harsh environments.
- Automotive assembly and medical equipment: Sensors are vital for verifying glue, gum, and adhesive applications in critical joints, and offer extreme reliability in safety-sensitive products like medical devices.
Exploring Different UVX Sensors
The UVX series stands apart from competitors because they are the smallest and fastest luminescence sensors on the market. The durable metal alloy case and glass lens can withstand industrial wear and tear, and its compact size and easy integration makes it ideal for tight spaces. With a 3-6x longer range than competitors, our UVX sensors allow for flexible mounting options. They also include dual analog and discrete outputs, supporting a variety of systems. These powerful sensors offer extreme accuracy and speed, enabling manufacturers to improve their productivity.
