Q4X Series All-Purpose Sensors
Description
Q4X laser distance sensor is now offered in 100-mm models optimized for higher performance over a shorter measuring range. They reportedly offer twice the measurement precision and a 25% smaller laser spot than the longer range 300-mm models, making them ideal for detecting small features.
These sensors are available with bipolar discrete (NPN and PNP) and analog (0–10 v or 4-20 ma) output options. Discrete models can detect objects as thin as 0.5 mm, while analog models precisely inspect part dimensions and positioning with resolution down to 0.15 mm. The Q4X is ideal for difficult distance-based sensing applications since it easily detects objects regardless of target surface reflectivity.
