BWM Series Through-beam Mapping Sensors

The BWM series mapping sensors are optimized for glass substrate detection with double scan method and excellent optical detection performance. The sensors can detect thin glass substrates with low levels of light reflection and support CC-Link and EtherCAT communication protocols. Users can easily check the teaching area using the installation instruction mode. The mapping sensors can be used to detect display panels on transport cassettes.

Sensing Level Setting to Minimize Influence from Bent Glass or Scattered Reflections

The sensing level setting allows optimal sensing with minimal influence from bent glass or scattered reflections. The sensing level can be set in 9 different sensitivity levels for stable detection in various environment settings. If the mapping sensor or cassettes are bent, sensitivity adjustments can be made without removing the glass substrates.
