In order to meet the demands of harsh applications, TURCK has expanded its QR24 line
of contactless rotary position sensors to include a version with stainless steel housing. Available in SSI or with incremental outputs
and equipped with 316 stainless steel housing, the new variant is built to withstand harsh environments such as those involving
chemicals or high-pressure water sprays. The wear-free performance of the existing QR24 line combined with the stainless steel
housing makes the stainless steel QR24 variant an ideal solution for applications that encounter extreme environmental conditions
such as in the food and beverage and off highway equipment industries.
The stainless steel QR24 sensor features a fully potted and sealed IP69K/IP68-rated housing to protect against moisture and
dust. It also offers flexible parameterization via IO Link or easyteach, allowing the sensor to easily adapt to specific application
requirements.
While rotary feedback is crucial in many installations, many rely on their mechanical bearings to provide proper tolerance and
position of the internal system. After time, mechanical wear, vibrations, potential leaks in bearing seals, etc. can contribute to
premature failure. The QR24 provides customers with contactless position detection, executing the same functions but without the
need for contact or bearings, allowing for longer and more reliable solution that saves installation time and costs.
The TURCK QR24 series is part of the company’s industry-recognized Q-track family of sensors, which utilize resistance inductive
capacitance (RLC) measuring technology. Unlike potentiometric or magnetic technologies, the sensors incorporate precisely
manufactured printed emitter and receiver coil systems. The emitter coils are activated with a high frequency AC field and produce
an inductive RLC circuit with the positioning element. The element is inductively coupled with the receiver coils, which are
arranged so different voltages are induced in the coils, depending on the position of the actuator. The voltages serve as a measure
for the sensor signal.

Banner Engineering's new L-Gage LE sensors offer the same robust housing, intuitive user interface and linear array technology as earlier LE models. They are an alternative for those concerned with using Class 2 lasers. The biggest advantage for this offering has been for automotive applications in Europe.
Class 1 laser versions of the LE250 and LE550 offer the same range and spot size options as the Class 2 laser versions. In order to provide the same range and measurement repeatability with a lower power laser, the standard, medium and slow response speed options for the Class 1 laser models have been doubled. For those that need measurements as fast as 2 ms, the LE’s fastest response option has not been changed. As a result, the repeatability from 600 – 1000 mm is slightly coarser than the Class 2 models when using the fastest speed.
FEATURES
- Ready to measure from 100 up to 1,000 mm out of the box
- Linear array provides repeatability and accuracy for challenging targets
- Priced below competition with similar performance
- Easy to set up and use with a two-line,
eight-character display
- Visible laser for small spot size and easy alignment
In today’s world, we rely on electric motors to ensure the continuity of

Banner Engineering's Q4XCOD sensor utilizes the same dual mode (dual intensity distance window) functionality to detect transparent and challenging objects regardless of angle or shape as the standard Q4XTBLAF. Similarly, no retro reflector is needed for operation, allowing users to simply teach the sensor the background of the application and go.
To provide a faster and easier installation solution for clear object detection, the clear object detection mode (also known as dual mode) is the default setting for this sensor, eliminating 2-point, dynamic, foreground suppression, and background suppression mode. The simplicity of this model is ideal for applications that deal with clear or transparent objects, such as:
- Thermal formers and blow molding
- Bottle filling and bottle handling
- Shrink wrapped package detection and clear bottle (glass or PET), jar, or tray detection
FEATURES
- Simplified menu options targeted at the detection of clear and challenging targets
- No reflector required
- Peak detection performance from 25 to 300 mm; longer ranges may be achievable depending on the application
