Light section & vision sensors combo
01 January 2017
Offering ready-to-use solutions for comparison and surveillance tasks, the light section sensors from the Pepperl+Fuchs’ SmartRunner range combine a high-precision light section sensor and vision sensor into one compact device.

The plug & play devices are optimised at the factory for a specific field of work. Unlike conventional ‘general purpose’ devices, commissioning and parameterisation is extremely simple to carry out using teach-in or via data matrix control codes, and does not require trained and qualified personnel.
Thanks to powerful LED lighting, SmartRunner devices are capable of capturing images for the visual documentation of errors, process conditions and quality attributes.
