COLOR SENSORS
color sensors are used to recognize colors or to distinguish them from reference values. Color sensors are particularly important in the production of mass-produced items, e.g. B. for the detection of adhesives, seals, color marks, levels of ripeness/hardness/browning, coatings, and much more
Our color sensors are modeled on the human eye and can detect the finest color nuances on all types of surfaces.
Cromlaview color sensors offer you the following advantages:
- perceptual color processing (perceptual)
- Up to 350 colors can be saved
- up to 350 color channels
- fast response time (from 50 µs)
- Long-term stable color recognition without relearning
- Simple teach-in using 3 buttons
- Temperature drift compensation
- Comparison of several color sensors possible
- PC software for parameterization
- The finest color differences can be seen (ΔE<1) as well as very dark objects
- For the first time, color difference measurement with a color sensor is also possible!
The color sensors are used with fiber optics or with solid optics. The measuring distance depends on the optics used and can be up to 1100 mm!
HIGHLIGHTS:
- perceptual (corresponding to human perception)
- Up to 350 colors can be stored on up to 350 (binary) channels
- short response time
- Can be used in a particularly versatile way with fiber optics
- Can also be used as a color difference sensor
