Information About NT8-01512
The NT8-01512 is part of SICK’s NT8 series of contrast sensors developed for high-speed and high-precision detection tasks. It uses white light illumination to reliably distinguish fine contrast differences across a wide range of colors and surface finishes. The sensor supports light and dark switching modes and provides fast switching frequencies suitable for rapid production lines. Its compact rectangular housing with flexible light emission direction allows installation in space-constrained machine layouts.
Key Features
- High-Speed Contrast Detection: Supports switching frequencies up to 10 kHz, enabling reliable operation in fast-moving printing and packaging processes.
- White Light Optical System: Provides stable contrast recognition across multi-colored prints and varying material surfaces.
- Short 9 Mm Sensing Distance: Designed for precise close-range detection in compact machine designs.
- Defined Light Spot Geometry: Uses a focused 1.5 mm × 3.5 mm light spot for accurate and repeatable detection.
- Flexible Light Emission Direction: Allows exchangeable emission from the long or short side to simplify mechanical integration.
- NPN Output Configuration: Enables direct connection to standard industrial control and PLC inputs.
- Fixed Cable Connection: Includes a 2 m cable for straightforward installation and reduced wiring complexity.
The NT8-01512 delivers the reliability and precision required for high-speed contrast detection in industrial printing, labeling, and packaging systems.
