Description
SICK KTX Prime Series – Contrast detection with TwinEye-Technology in Tried-and-Tested Housing | Innovation in Familiar Housing for the Very Best Sensor Performance:
Outstanding performance for a variety of applications, even with difficult framework conditions: The new KTX Prime with familiar hole pattern, high-precision RGB LED and VISTAL® housing impresses with TwinEye-Technology, color mode, high switching frequency, excellent gray line resolution, 7-segment display and IO-Link. The response time of 10 us and a jitter of 5 us ensure accurate detection of contrast differences, even at high machine speeds. Thanks to various teach-in processes, integrated color mode and variable sensor adjustment, commissioning is more flexible and the processes more stable. The KTX Prime provides additional diagnosis and analysis data via IO-Link. The new KTX Prime – it can easily do more.
