These sensors are ideal for reflective sensing of very small parts
or profiles, and can accurately sense the position of parts ap-
proaching from the side. The OSBCV will ignore all but highly
reflective objects which are beyond its sensing depth of field, and
HIGH-SPEED FIBER OPTIC Mode
Fiber optics (sometimes called "light pipes") are often used to
sense small parts. Small parts or narrow profiles which move at
a high rate of speed can require sensors with fast response times
for reliable detection.
High speed fiber optic sensor heads, such as model OSBF, are
ideal for sensing gear or sprocket teeth or other targets in
applications involving counters or shift registers for position
control. Selection of the fiber optic sensing tip should involve
matching the effective beam of the fiber to the profile of the part
to be sensed to maximize the time that the part is sensed and/or
the time between adjacent parts. Combining the best selection of
fiber tip geometry with a high speed sensor will result in a highly
repeatable position sensing system.
The model BT13S fiber optic assembly used with a model L9 or
L16F lens and an OMNI-BEAM using a model OSBF sensor
head is an excellent system for retroreflective code reading or for
almost any short range retroreflective sensing application.

produces a visible red sensing spot which greatly simplifies align-
ment and makes it useful in many high-contrast color registration
applications.
Sensing spot size at focus point is 0.05 inch (1,3mm) in diameter.
