This group brings together the most powerful sensors for distance
measurement, which work in reflex mode according to different
principles. High performance distance sensors are particularly fast and
precise, and demonstrate their high efficiency over large working
ranges. They are ideally suited for demanding applications. Even black
and shiny objects are reliably detected. Ethernet technology is
integrated into selected sensors.

High performance distance sensors which use the principle of angle measurement determine
the distance between the sensor and the object. These sensors have
small working ranges (under 1 m) and recognize objects with high
precision. Some sensors use a high-resolution CMOS line array and DSP
signal processing. The color, shape and texture of the objects to be
recognized does not affect the sensors’ measurements. Even dark objects
can be reliably detected against a bright background. They can be
operated with very high speeds or very high resolutions. The measured
value can be output as an analog value or via the interfaces.
Furthermore, Teach-In, filter functions for adjusting a switching
output, and an error output are available. The measuring range can be
selected individually within the working range.

High-performance distance sensors which use the principle of transit time measurement determine
the distance between the sensor and the object according to the
principle of transit time measurement. These sensors have a large
working range and are therefore able to detect objects over large
distances.
Selected sensors are distinguished by WinTec (wenglor
interference free technology). This technology allows black or shiny
surfaces to be reliably detected even in extremely inclined positions.
It is possible to mount several sensors next to or across from each
other without them influencing each other.
