Sick WF5-40B410 Fork Sensor
The Sick WF5-40B410 Fork Sensor (6037824) is a compact and high-speed optical fork sensor designed for precise label and small object detection in industrial environments. Utilizing an infrared LED light source, it ensures reliable detection of objects as small as 0.2 mm, making it ideal for high-precision applications.With a fast response time (≤100 µs) and high switching frequency (10 kHz), it delivers accurate performance even in fast-moving processes. The sensor supports PNP/NPN outputs with light/dark switching, adjustable via push buttons for easy setup.
Built with a robust aluminum housing and IP65 protection, it withstands harsh conditions. Its compact fork design (5 mm width, 42 mm depth) allows seamless integration into tight spaces, ensuring efficient and stable operation.
Applications
-
Label detection in packaging and labeling machines
-
Small object detection in high-speed production lines
-
Counting and positioning tasks in automation systems
-
Paper, film, and thin material detection
Technical Precautions
-
Maintain stable 10–30V DC power supply to avoid malfunction
-
Ensure proper alignment within 5 mm fork width for accurate sensing
-
Avoid excessive dust or obstruction in the sensing gap
-
Operate within –20°C to +60°C temperature range for optimal performance
