With the OHV210 mobile handheld readers, Pepperl+Fuchs is adding an extremely powerful variant to its range of handheld readers: On the one hand, the new devices are equipped with a Bluetooth® 5 interface for low energy consumption. On the other hand, the OHV210 handheld readers reliably read all common 1-D and 2-D codes—even on reflective or differently colored surfaces. In addition, they offer a very high resolution of 1.2 mega pixels. The combination of dual optics and high resolution makes it possible to read both large and very small codes with a module size of only 0.1 mm with one device.

The reliable HF RFID devices with IO-Link from Pepperl+Fuchs are easy to set up and powerful when needed, meaning you can alternate between Easy and Expert Mode. They have proven to be very popular with customers. Ultra-high frequency is now also an option, expanding the read/write distances up to 1.5 m. The housing size of the F191 is between that of the F190 and F192. It features an extended temperature range, degree of protection (IP67), and a highly competitive price. It is used in Intralogistics, automotive, Kanban, material handling, and factory automation applications. The devices provide protection against electrostatic discharge and enable bulk tag detection. In addition, several UHF parameterization settings are available.

With the VOC Industrial Event Camera, Pepperl+Fuchs is expanding its industrial vision portfolio. The camera allows event-driven video recording up to 60 seconds before and after a trigger signal, therefore enabling targeted and simple remote diagnostics as well as automatic documentation since only relevant situations are recorded.

Multilayer feed of materials such as paper, cardboard, metal, film or labels can lead to downtimes, process disruptions, and even material waste. Ultrasonic sensors for double sheet detection prevent a faulty material feed and ensure reliable processing and high availability. Combined with IO-Link, the user has full access to sensor parameters, and diagnostic and process data. The IO-Link interface enables comprehensive communication as well as simple commissioning and parameterization, while threshold values can be individually set via teach-in function.

Whether in combination with Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs), skid units, or monorail conveyor systems in the automotive industry, Data Matrix code tapes from Pepperl+Fuchs ensure the highest level of precision and maximum reliability for positioning and track guidance. The polyester laminate code tapes previously used for this purpose are primarily suited for applications that are subject to moderate levels of stress. For this reason, Pepperl+Fuchs has developed a new model for use in harsh industrial environments: metal Data Matrix code bars made of printed aluminum.

Join Helge Hornis and Cory Ockunzzi as they discuss vibration sensors and the inertial measurement unit IMUF99. Vibration sensors play an important role in machine condition monitoring by measuring normal operating conditions and informing the user when vibration changes and maintenance is required. Performing maintenance outside of business hours prevents the machine from shutting down during working hours, which can be very costly in terms of lost production, labor, and employee satisfaction. Inertial measurement units are widely used in the Mobile Equipment industry and other industries. The IMUF99 features a built-in gyroscope to measure inclination in 3 axes and an accelerometer to measure acceleration and rotation in 3 axes. The intelligent Sensor Fusion Algorithm combines the signals from the gyroscope and accelerometer to compensate for the effects of acceleration and provide error-free inclination detection during dynamic motion.

The ENI90 series hollow shaft rotary encoders with BlueBeam technology are characterized by high signal quality and maximum precision in rotational speed measurement. Due to the blue light of the BlueBeam technology, the ENI90 series incremental rotary encoders reliably achieve the highest measurement accuracy, even under the toughest conditions. Three device types and a comprehensive range of accessories offer almost unlimited configuration options for a wide variety of applications. They prove their worth wherever high-precision speed control is required, e.g. in crane systems, steel mills, and wind turbine applications. The ENI90IL basic version is the economical solution for all standard applications. The ENI90PL rotary encoder is designed for demanding environments and offers highest shock and vibration resistance. Its insulated shaft is suitable for high dielectric peaks. The EMC protection provides electrical surge immunity for the rotary encoder. For extreme conditions, the ENI90HD heavy-duty version is available. The devices in this series offer even higher dielectric strength for powerful EMC protection and can withstand maximum shaft loads.
