About Sensors
On the 979-2, sensors provide input to the PLC as part of the automation of the cutting process. It
is important to keep the sensors cleaned and aligned to keep the process running smoothly. There
are two classifications of sensors on the 979-2------Photo Electronic and Inductive Proximity Sen-
sor.
The
Photo Electronic Decor
uses light as a trigger.
•
Photo Eye Detectors
contain both emitter and receiver. If an object is within the
Photo Eye’s sensing field light from the emitter is reflected from the object back to
the receiver. With
no object
is in front of the Photo Eye a constant 24VDC is sent to
the PLC. If an object is sensed by the Photo Eye, 0VDC is sent to the PLC.
• As a result, any of the photo detectors output equals 0VDC when the trim is sensed.
The
Proximity Sensor
detects metallic objects without touching them.
• An inductive proximity sensor consists of a coil and ferrite core arrangement, an
oscillator and detector circuit, and a solid-state output. The ferrite core and oscillator
create a field generating out the front of the sensor. When a metal object enters the
field, a loss in amplitude occurs. The detector circuit recognizes the loss of ampli-
tude and generates 0VDC to send to the PLC. When the metal object leaves the sens-
ing area, the sensor to returns to 24VDC and sends it to the PLC.
• As a result, if a metal object is sensed, the output of the sensor equals 0VDC.
