Leuze electronic HRTU 412 and HRTU 420 ultrasonic scanning scanners
20 September, 2010 | Balluff Pty Ltd
The HRTU 412 and HRTU 420 from Leuze electronic are retro-reflective ultrasonic scanners with extremely short response times. They have three different sound lobes with narrow, normal and wide opening angles. The narrow sound lobes in particular permit the detection of the smallest of objects or the detection through small apertures at short response times of 10 ms. The switching behaviour is largely independent of the surface of the sound-reflecting materials.
