Color Sensor promotes application-specific reliability.
December 30, 2008 -
Available in diffuse and thru-beam modes, VCS210 can look at true color of target and not be affected by its glossiness or brightness. It has response time greater than or equal to 100 µsec and can recognize, evaluate, process, and display up to 255 distinct colors specific to application requirements. Software facilitates programming with selectable settings, including 7 evaluation methods, 6 color space modes, and 6 output-trigger methods, that promote operational flexibility.

New Color Sensors from Pepperl+Fuchs Deliver Unparalleled Control for Precise Performance, Application-Specific Reliability
High level of user control delivers more consistent, repeatable and accurate color reads when compared with competitive color sensor products
TWINSBURG, OH - Pepperl+Fuchs introduces VCS210 Color Sensors. These sensors enable users to program, evaluate, process and display up to 255 distinct colors for precise performance geared to specific application needs. With a 100's optimal response time, VCS210 sensors are up to 10 times faster than competitive color sensors. In many applications this will significantly improve productivity by reducing instances where the process would otherwise need to slow down, or even stop, for an inspection. Users will also spend far less time reprogramming and readjusting sensors to account for future application variances.
"Unlike many RGB and other color sensors, the VCS210 can evaluate colors quite similar to human vision. This means that the sensor can look at the true color of the target and not be affected by its glossiness or brightness, resulting in consistent, repeatable checks of a target color," says Jeff Allison, Product Manager - Photoelectric Sensing. "Additionally, most competitive color sensors are able to recognize up to eight or so different colors. But to date nothing comes close to rivaling the VCS210, which can recognize up to 255 colors in a single 3 in. x 1.5 in. x 1.5 in. housing," he says.
VCS210 color sensors offer an extensive range of selectable settings, including seven different evaluation methods, six different color space modes and six different output-trigger methods. And in spite of its sophisticated technology, programming is quick and easy with user-friendly, intuitive Windows-based software.
These performance attributes make the VCS210 uniquely equipped to cover a wider range of applications. They are ideally suited for packaging applications where multiple product types need to be identified and diverted to different packaging lines, as well as automotive applications where molded interior parts, carpeting or upholstery needs to be sorted or verified by color. They are also well suited for sorting in pharmaceutical applications, verifying the correct order of wires in connectors (by color) in electronics applications, checking fabric and leather colors in textile applications, and controlling the mixing process in paint applications.
VCS210 color sensors are available in diffuse and thru-beam modes. A wide range of fiber optic cables and fiber optic tips are available even where space is severely limited, and/or the user has a preferred mounting method.
Pepperl+Fuchs is a world leader in the design, manufacture and application of high quality factory and process automation products and services. Pepperl+Fuchs pioneered the development of proximity sensors 50 years ago, and has set the standard for innovation and quality ever since.
