COMPACT AND VERSATILE ULTRASONIC SENSOR SETS NEW STANDARDS The latest addition to the extensive, award-winning range of BAUMER sensors is the NexSonic UF300, an ultra-compact 18mm flat ultrasonic sensor with a 3-meter sensing range and ideally suited to intralogistics applications. The development of this innovative sensor is another example of Baumer's technological leadership in sensing expertise with another best-in-class product. In addition to an impressive sensing range of 3 metres, other key features include the shortest blind range of just 50mm, an unrivalled short response time up to 56ms whilst a requirement of only 18mm installation depth enables maximum design freedom. This minimal installation depth will be extremely helpful in sensing applications where space is restricted. The NexSonic technology is designed to maximise ultrasonic sensor performance and is based on an ultrasonic processor (ASIC) developed and patented by Baumer. In NexSonic ultrasonic sensors the piezo electric element with ASIC connects directly to the sensor membrane. The result is a shorter signal path and improved electromagnetic compatibility, while the compact evaluation electronics boost signal processing time and reliability. Additional benefits of NexSonic technology are the adaptive sonic cone which is ideally suited to detecting objects through narrow openings along with smart filter functions, which can supress interfering objects. UF300 with NexSonic technology is available in both measuring and switching options and should prove to be extremely versatile as a sensor which reduces the number of product variants typically required in production and warehousing applications. The introduction of this new ultrasonic sensor expands Baumer's sensor range to an impressive six options comprising, the UF200, UF300, U300, U500, UR12 and UR18 all available in different designs and sizes. Thanks to the unique features of the new UF300 sensor makes it ideally suited to sensing applications including pallet detection, particularly on long fork arms, for monitoring pallet stacks and gates in cold storage facilities, as well other sensing applications in the packaging and electronics industries.
