Color Sensors
Color sensors are used to enable a machine to sense the presence of a target, for example, to determine if a part was painted or not. Color sensors can also be used for sorting by color, for example, in packaging. They are also used in medical laboratory equipment. Some sensors can recognize different colors or distinguish between shades of a color, in a cosmetic or textile process, for instance. Other color sensors don't actually detect color but rather the contrast of a color mark against a background. Most color sensors detect three or more wavelength bands to determine color.
ColorMax-1000T Color Sensor
Verify the presence of targets that can be differentiated by color, faster and with greater control. A ColorMax-1000T color sensor lets your machine see up to 15 colors and RGB intensity. What's more, innovative technology improves sensitivity and speed, so you can maximize the pace of manufacturing.
. Recognizes 15 colors. Use fewer sensors. No need to reprogram when you change setups.
. Traditional color sensors output only a "match/no match" condition, but the ColorMaxT-1000 also outputs the analog values for each RGB reading. Now machines and operators can see not just which color, but how much color - enabling tighter control.
. 2 to 5 times faster sample speed - for fast manufacturing.
. The only color sensor in an M30 package.
. Highest resolution and repeatability specs in the industry.
. Sophisticated algorithms ignore luster.
. PC-based configuration; lock out unauthorized changes.
