Each week I give a shout out?? to a smaller UK business from the ConeX Portal:
This week however, I would like to highlight the most recent of ConeX's LinkedIn live sessions, when Andrea Wilson discusses her Campaign for a dedicated UK Minister for Manufacturing: https://lnkd.in/e_NqMUDY
Here is news about PLUS Automation and Contrinex sensors (aka my day job)
Contrinex’s ‘Frog-head’ ?? Fibre-optic ?? Array Keeps Hand-Brake Cable Production Running?- Contrinex’s Fibre-optic sensors are trusted to detect breakages in the manufacturer of steel cable used in automotive parking-brake systems.
The photoelectric sensor system comprises a DIN-rail-mounted fibre-optic amplifier coupled with a multi-beam diffuse sensing head, which has a shape reminiscent of a frog's head??.
?The multi-beam sensor’s 28mm-wide sensing face, switching frequencies of 4,000Hz and the sensing distance of up to 150mm make the multi-beam fibre-optic sensors ideal for detecting fast-moving targets.
PRODUCT ADVANTAGES
??? Rapid, reliable detection of a small, fast-moving target with an erratic path, ?? Very cost-effective solution to a potentially costly problem, ?? System switching frequency of up to 4,000 Hz, ???Exceptionally reliable detection across a 28mm wide array, ???? Simple set-up and teach-in function, ??? IO-Link DIN Rail amplifiers – Ideal for Industry 4 and offering Plug and Play swap-out. ?
Call me on 07910 156 470 to discuss how PLUS Automation Ltd???? can help you #MakeSenseofSensors to solve applications, improve machine performance and reliability, and reduce costs using Contrinex's exceptional Inductive??, Photoelectric??, Ultrasonic??, RFID???& Machine Safety?? sensors.
