Leading Edge Detection

Different Sensors for different challenges on conveyors

On equipment that moves a product, container, or package, sensors are used to detect the movement or presence of these items to make critical decisions. Specifically, these applications rely on detecting the leading edge of the item as quickly and as accurately as possible.

Banner has developed multiple innovative sensors that address the ability to detect very thin or irregular objects on conveyors with reduced installation time and cost. When an object on a conveyor blocks any of the beams, the sensor indicates that a package is detected and accounted for. Banner offers a several proven leading-edge detection solution to meet any application.
