Ultrasonic Sensors
Reliable Detection. Precise Measurement. Built for Any Industry.
Ultrasonic sensors are known for their exceptional accuracy and adaptability in industrial environments. These sensors use sound waves to detect objects or measure levels—delivering millimeter-level precision even in challenging or contaminated settings.
Their working principle makes them highly reliable across dusty, humid, or reflective environments, where optical or inductive sensors often struggle. With a self-cleaning vibrating surface and non-contact measurement, ultrasonic sensors remain stable and accurate without performance loss due to dirt, moisture, or surface irregularities.
Unlike in the past—when ultrasonic technology was seen as a complex last-resort solution—these sensors are now widely accepted as a go-to choice for tough detection tasks across industries.
Thru-Beam Ultrasonic Sensors
High-Speed Detection with Long Sensing Distances
Ultrasonic thru-beam sensors consist of separate transmitter and receiver units, delivering a powerful and focused acoustic beam. These sensors do not rely on echo timing like diffuse sensors, enabling them to achieve faster response times and higher switching frequencies.
Their long-range detection and compact housing make them ideal for applications that require fast, reliable sensing—such as material flow control, part detection, or presence sensing on conveyors.
Double Sheet Detection Sensors
Accurate Material Layer Sensing for Industrial Feeds
Specialized double sheet ultrasonic sensors, such as those from Pepperl+Fuchs, are designed for sheet-fed systems, enabling reliable detection of single, double, or missing layers of material. These sensors are highly effective in paper, packaging, and metal processing industries.
They differentiate between air gaps, one sheet, or two overlapping materials—whether you’re working with paper, thin metals, glass panes, wood panels, or plastic films. In labeling applications, they can clearly distinguish between the label, backing paper, and the carrier material—ensuring high-speed, error-free operation in automated lines
