Taking the register

摘要

Until recently, SICK's registration sensor portfolio has been led by the SICK KT5 sensor - probably the most commonly-used and depended-upon contrast sensor in industry worldwide. Now, a new breakthrough in registration performance, the KTS/KTX family is being officially launched in the UK at the PPMA Show in September 2017. David Hannaby, SICK's UK Product Manager for Presence Detection, takes the opportunity to review registration sensing - a technology whose challenges and solutions should resonate with anyone using photo-electric devices in high-speed production today.
