Standard Models
First, Our Standard Lineup
P6
These Fibers Units can be used in a variety of applications, such as detecting the presence of workpieces
and positioning.
A Wide Variety of Shapes for
Adapting to Different Installation
Locations
Choose the model that suits the installation space from a
wide variety of shapes and sizes.
Space Savings and Simple Mounting
Flat Models
Flat models that allow simple
screw mounting and
straightforward wiring have been
added to the lineup. Using these
models eliminates the problem
of fibers getting caught on
surrounding objects.

Detect Workpieces in Tight Spaces
Custom-produced Sleeves
Right angle
Screw-shaped
Cylindrical
Flat
Equipped with sleeve
Models with sleeves allow
detection in tight spaces. We will
perform the time-consuming
task of fashioning the sleeve,
with a length and bends to suit
the space (except for ultrafine
sleeves).
Models with sleeves
Flexible, Pliable Fiber
That Can Be Handled Like Wire
We have developed a broad range of fibers to meet a wide
variety of needs. Multicore (flexible) fiber is a new type of
standard fiber that can be used like wire without worrying
about the bending radius. We have also produced fiber that
will not break when used in moving parts and fiber that is
not degraded by contact with oil.
Length Can Be Specified in 1-m Units
Saving Energy and Work
We will produce fiber of the required length (in meter
units). For large-scale installations, specifications of up
to 20 m can be handled. (Specifications of 0.3 m and
0.5 m are also possible.)
Conventional fiber
Flexible fiber
You will certainly appreciate the ease of use that flexible fiber ensures.
Special-beam Models
Detection with Increased Reliability
P10
A variety of heads incorporating the latest optical technology makes it possible to solve common problems
related to detection and to increase reliability.
