Leuze - To the “PIN” Point!
If you’re looking for solutions for a wide range of applications, Leuze is the right place for you. Whether it’s high precision or extreme environmental conditions like cleaning processes, deep-freeze environments, or high-speed switching sensors—Leuze always offers a fitting solution.
Thanks to Leuze’s innovative light source technology, even more interesting options are now within reach with PinPoint LEDs. This powerful optical technology is an excellent addition to the standard (infrared and red) LEDs and laser LEDs. PinPoint LEDs are more cost-effective than laser options and offer a narrow red light beam that sits perfectly between standard and laser light sources.
In many cases, PinPoint sensors can replace more expensive laser sensors. For example, these sensors are often used for positioning or for precisely “focusing” on very small components. The reliable background suppression ensures that they detect exactly up to the desired distance and no further!
For retro-reflective photoelectric sensors, these sensors provide higher system reserves, especially when using small reflectors. Setup and alignment are quick and easy, allowing you to get started right away.
Available Individually or as a Set?
For various applications, sensor sets are available. This way, you only need to enter one item number in your order to receive the sensor, including a mounting bracket and, if needed, a reflector. These could be standard photoelectric sensors in various models, but also special versions, such as a sensor that can easily be screwed to a crossbeam under a pallet conveyor and detects passing pallets. Previously, an ultrasonic sensor was often used for this purpose, aimed at a metal plate to relay the signal—an elaborate and often more costly solution! Leuze sensors are standardly equipped with a filter to prevent interference from high-frequency lighting fixtures.

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.”
