The dbk+5 extends the area of application of double sheet controls to heavy carton, corrugated cardboard, and plastic sheets.
Highlights
High-performance ultrasonic double-sheet control especially for the probing of corrugated cardboard as well as plastic plates several mm thick
3 control inputs for Teach-in, trigger, and external sensitivity settings for the material
Teach-in option e.g. for probing plates stuck together with an oil film
Compact design in M18 x 1 threaded tube
Basics
Reliable detection of single and double sheets
No Teach-in needed (plug and play)
Double-sheet and missing-sheet output
Working distance between the transmitter and the receiver selectable from 30 to 70 mm
Trigger option for applications in warehouse flow
LinkControl for configuration of sensors from a PC
Description
The dbk+5 ultrasonic double-sheet control
is designed for scanning thin sheet metal, plastic sheets and corrugated cardboard with thicknesses exceeding the working range of the dbk+4 sensors. The principle behind the operation is the same as for the dbk+4 sensors. The main difference between the systems lies in the materials to the detected. (For further information, see dbk+4.)
Typical materials
in the range of applications of the dbk+5 are sheet metal up to approx. 2 mm thick (depending on the type of metal), plastic sheets and boards for printed circuits up to a thickness of several millimetres, and coarse corrugated card.
Papers require the sensors to be mounted perpendicular to the passing sheets. But in the case of sheet metal, plastic sheets and boards for printed circuits, it is preferable to mount the dbk+5 at an angle of 10–18° to the passing sheets.
