After COVID, technological innovations also took place in the factory automation field. Technologies related to "non-contact," "image processing," and "antibacterial/antiviral" are still of particular importance. Today, just as the way of working in companies has changed dramatically and the use of networks has advanced, all kinds of innovations are being created in manufacturing and other production sites and in logistics.
Today, when all industries are facing various social challenges, and the FA industry is no different.
The near-infrared ray reflection detection method is used, and the unique lens structure limits the detection range to the front of the product only, thereby reducing detection due to misoperation.
It can be used safely in areas requiring weather resistance and fastness indoors and outdoors, as well as in areas requiring sanitary measures.
Two types are available: a resin type and a highly robust metal type. Since they are not directly touched by wet hands, there is no need to take measures against surface deterioration.
If there are multiple switches on a panel, etc., will it cause malfunctions? It's okay. IDEC touchless switches have mutual interference prevention. By shifting the wavelength slightly from the signal of adjacent touchless switches, false detection can be suppressed and malfunctions due to interference from nearby infrared devices can be prevented. If a light from a different projection than its own enters the light, it will not be affected as long as it is limited to two units (one in addition to itself).
When three or more units are used, the recommended values are a mounting pitch of 50 mm vertically and 30 mm horizontally in accordance with IEC60947-5-1. When multiple units are installed adjacent to each other, please check with the customer's machine after considering the detection area.
Near-infrared reflectance. Hand detection distance adjustable from approximately 70 to 270mm. By adjusting the sensitivity control on the back of the switch, it is possible to set the detection distance appropriate for the location of use. The unique lens structure can limit the detection range to the front of the product, which prevents malfunctions and can be detected with or without gloves on.
