The Banner QS18 sensor is a high performance clear object detection
sensor with an IO-link and multifunction output. The polarized coaxial
optical design ensures reliable detection of transparent, translucent, and
opaque targets at any distance between the sensor and the reflector.
Low contrast sensing applications include PET bottles, glass containers,
and shrink wrap. The sensor can also be used to detect optical surfaces
such as: LCD panels with built in polarizing films, solar panels, and
semiconductor wafers.
