Stack Height Monitoring on Packaging Magazines with Ultrasonic Distance Sensor
Stack Height Monitoring on Packaging Magazines with Ultrasonic Distance Sensor
Different colored cartons in packaging systems are stacked on top of each other in magazines before being unfolded and filled in downstream processes. In order to ensure a continuous material supply, the stacking height of the magazine is checked by an ultrasonic distance sensor. This sensor records the measured values either continuously via IO-Link or with two switching points so that the magazine can be refilled in good time. Thanks to the wide sonic cone, recesses, gaps or punches have no influence on object sensing.

Film Tear and Fill Level Monitoring in Packaging Systems with Ultrasonic Distance Sensor
Film Tear and Fill Level Monitoring in Packaging Systems with Ultrasonic Distance Sensor
Colorful, glossy or transparent films are used in packaging plants to ensure that products are airtight and securely packed. These are conveyed by rolls and attached around the objects. Ultrasonic distance sensors monitor the roll diameter to ensure continuous material flow. Two independent switching outputs signal when there is little film left on the roll and when the roll is empty and needs to be replaced. In addition, the sensor checks whether the film is open or torn.

Presence Check of Glass Bottles with Ultrasonic Sensor
Presence Check of Glass Bottles with Ultrasonic Sensor
Glass bottles of different shapes, colors and transparency are printed using digital inkjet printing in the beverage industry. Before the print heads start printing from different directions, it must first be checked that the bottles are present. This prevents the heads from spraying each other. For this purpose, the bottles are individually detected via ultrasonic sensors through an aperture on the neck of the bottle. When the presence of a bottle is confirmed, the print head is activated.

End Position Check of Panels in Buffer Storage with Ultrasonic Sensors
End Position Check of Panels in Buffer Storage with Ultrasonic Sensors
In the furniture industry, wood or plastic is processed in panels. Before processes such as sawing, they are temporarily stored in an automated buffer storage facility. Ultrasonic sensors are installed between the narrow conveyor rollers to detect the presence and end positions of the panels in the storage racks. In a compact 1K housing, the sensor detects objects precisely from close proximity even in dusty environments and with irregular surfaces, thus preventing multiple storage of panels. The sensors can be parameterized and process data read out via IO-Link before installation.

Ultrasonic Sensor Monitors Die-Cut Sheets and Foils for Chip Cards
Ultrasonic Sensor Monitors Die-Cut Sheets and Foils for Chip Cards
In the production of chip cards, PCB panels are printed and punched using a punching tool before they are stacked for packaging. Before transfer to a magazine, the sheets must be reliably detected in order to maintain a constant flow of material. Ultrasonic sensors ensure reliable detection of laminated, perforated and stamped sheets regardless of their color and surface – even transparent materials with numerous recesses are easily detected.

Presence Check of Wooden Panels in Furniture Production with Ultrasonic Distance Sensors
Presence Check of Wooden Panels in Furniture Production with Ultrasonic Distance Sensors
In the furniture industry, wooden panels with different colors, shapes, degrees of gloss and surfaces are conveyed on roller conveyor belts to the next process step. In order to monitor the transport fully automatically, the presence of the panels must be recorded at all times. The slim metric design allows installation beneath the conveyor technology in order to be able to carry out a precise presence check of the wooden panels. Even dust and chips do not influence the results of the ultrasonic sensors.

Level Control of Cream in a Mixer with Ultrasonic Distance Sensor
Level Control of Cream in a Mixer with Ultrasonic Distance Sensor
In the pharmaceutical and cosmetics industries, ingredients of ointments or creams are mixed together in fully automated mixers. In order to perform the mixing process correctly and to achieve the correct consistency, the minimum and maximum fill levels must be continuously monitored. For this purpose, an ultrasonic distance sensor is installed above the mixer, which reliably detects the material regardless of color, condition or transparency. The fill level can be checked either via an analog measured value or by defining individual switching thresholds via IO-Link.

Fill-Level Measurement in a Storage Container with Ultrasonic Distance Sensor
Fill-Level Measurement in a Storage Container with Ultrasonic Distance Sensor
In the automotive industry, primer liquids are used as a primer for plastic parts in storage containers at production plants. From these storage containers, the material is automatically supplied to the machines. To ensure the minimum fill level, the level in the containers must be monitored. For this purpose, an ultrasonic distance sensor with stainless steel housing is inside the container, which detects surfaces regardless of structure, color or gloss level. If the fill level falls below a defined level, the sensor switches and the ball valve must be opened for filling.

Slack Monitoring on Sheet Metal Belts with Ultrasonic Distance Sensor
Slack Monitoring on Sheet Metal Belts with Ultrasonic Distance Sensor
Continuous material supply must be ensured in punching machines. As a material buffer, the supplied metal sheets are guided through the system in the form of a hanging loop. This compensates for the time delay between replenishment and the production processes. To monitor this process, an ultrasonic distance sensor is installed above the loop. It checks whether the sag falls below the minimum value or touches the ground. Ultrasonic measurement is not affected by even very shiny plates and dirt such as oil mist or dust.

Performance in a New Combination: The U1RT Ultrasonic Distance Sensors
Low installation depth and easy integration of the sensor via an M18 thread or the drill holes on the housing – the advantages of the established R format have been appreciated for years in the field of photoelectronic sensors. wenglor’s ultrasonic distance sensors from the new U1RT series combine this format with the tried-and-tested ultrasonic technology of the U1KT and UMD product series, thus setting new standards in terms of range and integration options. Thanks to IO-Link 1.1 and NFC interface, the sensor offers flexible setting options and data storage. Combining two successful products and installing these technologies in an established sensor housing design results in this new generation of U1RT ultrasonic reflex sensors. In through beam mode, it operates reliably up to 2,000 mm, in reflex operation up to 1,200 mm. In addition to the application range at temperatures between –30 and +60 °C, it is also possible to use the sensors in synchronous mode. Two independent switching outputs enable the measurement of minimum and maximum levels. All-round visible LED indicators and high IP67/IP68 degree of protection are just two of the many reasons why this format is so successful. Flexibility and Smart Communication The high flexibility in use is made possible not only by the low installation depth, but also by the availability of PNP and NPN variants. “But the new U1RT series sensors can do much more”, explains wenglor product manager Maria Boos. “The integrated IO-Link 1.1 interface with COM3 standard enables fast and secure communication with controllers. Thanks to the Smart Sensor Profile, the product can be easily integrated into IO-Link in a standardized way and regularly sends status messages.” The integrated NFC interface even allows the sensors to be configured without power and wirelessly via the wenglorApp – which is ideal for applications with high quantities and saves a lot of time. Speaking of saving time: The sensor can be adjusted directly via the teach-in key with just a few buttons. Product manager Maria Boos is certain: “The long ranges combined with the tried-and-tested R format and smart integration options make the U1RT series a real all-rounder for the industry.” Versatile Portfolio for Every Application In addition to extremely compact formats such as the U1KT housing (32 × 16 × 12 mm) and the R format (56.5 × 26 × 24 mm), the ultrasonic sensors product category also includes the metric designs in M18 and M30 format (UMD and UMF) made of stainless steel as well as the cuboidal UMS sensors (81 × 55 × 30/47 mm) for large working distances of up to 6,000 mm and the special U1H format as a fork sensor. Almost any application can be achieved with a sensor in this category. Ultrasonic Technology Ultrasonic sensors are ideal for contactless detection of transparent, glossy and dark objects, reflective surfaces and materials of all kinds – whether solid or liquid, rough or smooth, porous or translucent. Environmental conditions such as dust, steam, dirt or the influence of ambient light do not disturb them. “By emitting and receiving pulsed ultrasonic waves, the sensors, like bats, use the time it takes for the sound to be reflected by the object to determine its distance”, Boos continues. “Level measurement, stack height checks, checking slack in roller material or even checking for the presence of e.g. cans or PET bottles in automatic return machines are just a few applications that can be solved with this technology.” The Highlights at a Glance Long range up to 1,200 mm in reflex mode Long range up to 2,000 mm in through beam mode Two independent switching outputs with programmable error output Compact R format (56.5 × 26 × 24 mm) IO-Link 1.1 interface with COM3 standard NFC interface Reflex, through beam or synchronous mode possible PNP/NPN variants Temperature range –30 °C to +60 °C IP67/IP68 degree of protection
