These highly sensitive area sensors for detecting all types of small metal parts stand out due to their spatially resolved detection. This means that the metal parts are not only detected, but their position is determined on the sensor, making this unique sensor particularly suitable for use in the recycling industry. For example, metallic contaminants can be rejected from a material flow with precision, allowing shredded material to be sorted in an optimal way. The sensor can be used for conveyor belts, chutes or free-fall applications.
