Leuze - Spot on! Simple and targeted detection
For the detection of the most diverse objects, sometimes a simple solution is conceivable: a Leuze photocell with a competitive price and excellent performance!
Whether in intralogistics applications (detection of bins, boxes, pallets, racks, etc.) or in packaging technology, where compact construction and standardization are important, or in one of many other applications: reliable detection does not have to be expensive.
Series 5B photoelectric sensors
The series 5B photocells are comprehensive and equipped for many applications. They are available as reflector photocells, for direct reflection (probe) or as separate transmitter-receiver systems. They are suitable for different ways of connection, equipped with a bright LED indication, visible over long distances. Your advantage: fast commissioning and alignment. Standard in density, IP67- and ECOLAB-certified.
The reflector photoelectric sensors are even capable of reliably recognizing, for example, foil-wrapped objects (such as pallets). Probes with exact background suppression see only what you want to see. And the separated transmitter-receiver variants even switch at 900 Hz!
With the narrow beam (red light) and solid housing, a modern sensor family has been added.
Standardization can save a lot of money. Here it helps if you can suffice with only one or a few types: in addition to cost reduction at purchase, fewer spare parts are needed. Smart technology combined with a satisfied buyer, who doesn't want that?
As soon as the requirements become more stringent or the application more difficult, Leuze doesn't leave you alone either: the sensors of the "extended" and "advanced" series offer solutions for the most extreme conditions. Be it heated sensors, variants with even higher density, IO-Link communication, laser variants or other, special optical versions: get advice from an expert at itsme. We can often find a suitable sensor to solve your detection problem.

Leuze - Give me a tough questionRead moreIn industrial automation, sensors are the eyes and ears of the machine or plant. By far the most commonly used binary switching sensors are inductive and optical. Inductive sensors are well suited to technical applications that require metal detection, such as monitoring start or end positions, valve position or speed controls. Optical sensors, however, have a much wider range of applications.

TR Service - Future-proof low-voltage panelRead moreTR-Service provides industrial maintenance using all disciplines, from electrical and mechanical to hydraulic and pneumatic. With support from Breemes, the company installed a large low-voltage panel. ‘After discussing my summary plan with them, I decided to just do it,’ says director-owner Raoul Tielens. At Breemes' suggestion, the panel was future-proofed by preparing it for power monitoring.

Eneco - Green light for green electricity and steamRead moreEneco Bio Golden Raand, located in the port area of Delfzijl, converts biomass into green electricity and green steam. Each year, the plant processes approximately 300,000 tons of waste wood from the Netherlands and neighboring countries. As part of Eneco’s climate ambitions, a project began in 2022 to replace the existing fluorescent lighting in and around the boiler room. The project was carried out under the supervision of itsme. “Two factors were important in this process: the cost, of course, but also the level of service.”
