Leuze - To the “PIN” Point!
If you’re looking for solutions for a wide range of applications, Leuze is the right place for you. Whether it’s high precision or extreme environmental conditions like cleaning processes, deep-freeze environments, or high-speed switching sensors—Leuze always offers a fitting solution.
Thanks to Leuze’s innovative light source technology, even more interesting options are now within reach with PinPoint LEDs. This powerful optical technology is an excellent addition to the standard (infrared and red) LEDs and laser LEDs. PinPoint LEDs are more cost-effective than laser options and offer a narrow red light beam that sits perfectly between standard and laser light sources.
In many cases, PinPoint sensors can replace more expensive laser sensors. For example, these sensors are often used for positioning or for precisely “focusing” on very small components. The reliable background suppression ensures that they detect exactly up to the desired distance and no further!
For retro-reflective photoelectric sensors, these sensors provide higher system reserves, especially when using small reflectors. Setup and alignment are quick and easy, allowing you to get started right away.
Available Individually or as a Set?
For various applications, sensor sets are available. This way, you only need to enter one item number in your order to receive the sensor, including a mounting bracket and, if needed, a reflector. These could be standard photoelectric sensors in various models, but also special versions, such as a sensor that can easily be screwed to a crossbeam under a pallet conveyor and detects passing pallets. Previously, an ultrasonic sensor was often used for this purpose, aimed at a metal plate to relay the signal—an elaborate and often more costly solution! Leuze sensors are standardly equipped with a filter to prevent interference from high-frequency lighting fixtures.

Leuze - The mini Safety Laser Scanner RSL200Read moreThe smallest scanner ever is now available, about the size of an orange: suitable for the highest safety level PLd/Cat.3/SIL2 and offering optimal ease of use, not only in stationary installations.
-
Leuze - Always safe!Read moreTo protect people around dangerous workplaces, Leuze has been implementing safety for decades and protects with light barriers, safety switches and safety laser scanners. When periodic action is required and mechanical guards such as fences are not desired, these optical guards offer exactly what is needed.

Leuze - Give me a tough questionRead moreIn industrial automation, sensors are the eyes and ears of the machine or plant. By far the most commonly used binary switching sensors are inductive and optical. Inductive sensors are well suited to technical applications that require metal detection, such as monitoring start or end positions, valve position or speed controls. Optical sensors, however, have a much wider range of applications.

Leuze - 3C SeriesRead moreThe size of a sugar cube in our 3C Series of sensors: the ODT3CL1 laser distance sensor up to 2 metres accurate! Within this Series/design are many function principles in various versions. Characteristic are the many variants (in terms of sensing principle, - optics, - connection technology or - specific applications filling in) which often also feature integrated IO Link communication.

Sekisui AlveoRead moreFoam producer Sekisui Alveo has a large factory in Roermond. To support production and maintenance, warehouses and distribution points with thousands of different items are spread across the various halls. Think spare parts, personal protection equipment and consumables. The company cooperates intensively with itsme for management, such as recently with the step-by-step introduction of vendor managed inventory (VMI) for the grab stock of mechanical items.
-
IECRead moreTo control the expansion of a silo park, engineering & construction company IEC called on Breemes. Being involved in the engineering from the beginning, the electrical service provider was able to make smart proposals for both the low-voltage part and the PLC control. ‘We have always been able to find each other well and when changes occurred, we were quickly on the same page with Breemes.’
-
Heliox - Charged for DeliveryRead moreHeliox, a developer and manufacturer of charging systems for electric buses and trucks, was already working with itsme when production still took place in the Netherlands. Today, production has shifted to Slovakia, Portugal, and Moldova, and is also happening in the US. itsme remains the “irreplaceable” partner for the supply of electrical components and cable harnesses.

BLOK System SupplyRead moreBlok System Supply and itsme have maintained an intensive relationship for many years. Early last year, this was further deepened with electronic data exchange via the Smart Connected Supplier Network. ‘It saves an enormous amount of time and reduces errors. We always have real-time information automatically.’ However, time for personal contact is not saved. ‘That is precisely what makes itsme a very nice party to work with.’
