Introducing the new Smart Sensor from OMRON.

If you listen carefully,

you'll probably hear people complaining

about these sensor problems.

Optical sensors and image sensors.

The general consensus on the production line is that they both have their advantages and

disadvantages.

Many users hesitate to introduce a full-scale image sensor system, but at the same time, find it

difficult to install and use an optical sensor system.

Now there is a sensor that answers these problems.

Not an optical sensor and not an image sensor, it's a brand new type of smar t sensor.

With the increasing importance that is being placed on quality control today,

you will find this sensor to be a major help in moving your production lines forward.

It's difficult to

make fine settings.

Detection is

unstable, leading

to quality

problems.

It takes time to

make settings and

adjustments.

They're

expensive.

Only people with

technical

knowledge can

operate them.

lt's difficult to reset

the line when

products change.

Have you heard about some

your production lines?

Have you heard about some

Color or position differences are a good example.
A person can see these with a glance, but it's both costly and labor-intensive to set up a system
that will allow a sensor to detect these differences.
If only there were a simpler way, something that resembled human vision...
Now there is, because we have added color capabilities to the Smart Sensor.
In addition to being able to distinguish colors, the new Smart Sensor also offers stable detection
for ordinary, conventional workpieces.
It goes a long way toward answering many of the problems that today's production lines are facing.

Easier than image sensors in a variety of ways.

Start-up is easy because the sensor and the light source are
integrated. Of course, it is also reasonably priced.

Only the functions that your production people truly need are provided.
By including the essential functions of the image sensor,
we have achieved highly stable measurement.

Even new users can make settings and adjustments easily
by selecting the icons while watching the LCD monitor.
You don't have to be an expert to use it.

With smart sensors...With image sensors...

Youneed to worry about
the initial cost and the
work to build the system.

Youdon't need advanced
functions for simple
inspections.

Settings are complicated
and maintenance is a
chore.

From sensing points to sensing areas

There's a chance they will
fail to detect due to problems
like a shift in the
position of printed
text.

The Color Filter function also
improves contrast for more
stable detection of even faint
text.

Double-check with shape and color

Smart Sensor inspects objects using both
shape and color, the two main criteria used
by people.

Note:The operational flow varies depending on the selected item.

Just select the icon for the application

Simple menu selection using icons.

The basic settings for inspection items are made by watching
the monitor and simply pressing the appropriate button.
This also speeds up resetting operations when products change.
