LX-100 Series Color Mark Sensors

Digital Color Mark Sensor

RGB color sensor for high speed detection of registration marks

Digital Color Mark SensorThe LX-100 series of digital color mark sensors utilizes 3 LED elements (Red, Green, and Blue) offering high precision sensing of any color marking. A four digit digital display allows for user-friendly setting and monitoring of sensor settings. Six easy-to-see indicators surround the main display allowing quick and easy confirmation of the operating mode.

Also, the threshold value can be conveniently checked at the touch of a button. One-level, two-level and fully automatic teaching methods are available with an option of external teaching if the sensor is not easily accessible. The LX-100 series has two detection modes:

  • Mark Mode
    The sensor automatically selects the most effective LED color for the application that is presented. With a fast response time of 45 microseconds, this mode is best suited for high speed manufacturing lines.
  • Color Mode
    For high precision color mark detection, all three LEDs are utilized to distinguish between colors that are difficult with conventional single LED sensors. The built-in 12-bit A/D converter enables high precision 1/4000 resolution judgments.
