Big performance in small space
16 December 2014
Miniaturised MICROmote photoelectric sensors from Balluff, with separate electronic processor unit, provide high levels of optical performance in a tiny amount of space thanks to miniaturised LEDs, photodiodes and phototransistors.

The MICROmote sensors are ideal in small installation spaces and on moving machine parts and robot grippers, where low weight is necessary.
The robust sensors integrated into the metal housing are operated with a separate amplifier, which can be positioned outside the action area. Highly flexible electrical cables provide secure transmission of the sensor signals between the sensor head and the amplifier.
