Banner Engineering Corp. introduced the PresencePLUS P4 IP68-rated, sealed OMNI vision sensor. Featuring a compact, yet durable nickel-plated aluminum housing, the P4 Sealed OMNI vision sensor withstands demanding washdown conditions - as well as dust and debris common in harsh-duty environments - with the use of an integrated ring light or lens cover.The P4 Sealed OMNI vision sensor performs quality inspections in food handling and packaging applications, including:
  • Label alignment inspection
  • Color verification and matching
  • Flaw detection
  • 2D and 1D bar code reading
  • Optical Character Reading and Verification (OCR/OCV)
  • Packaging inspection
  • Assembly verification
  • Fill level detection
  • Orientation inspection
  • Error proofing
The P4 Sealed OMNI vision sensor offers advanced features that make it particularly useful in a variety of complex applications:
  • Sealed, IP68-rated housing and connectors withstand dust, moisture and washdown
  • Durable nickel-plated aluminum housing in a compact form factor tolerates shock and vibration
  • Banner's complete suite of location, inspection, analysis and geometric tools; can be used simultaneously for inspecting multiple features and complex applications
  • Premium tools deliver enhanced inspection capabilities, including Bar Code Reading (BCR), OCR/OCV and Bead Inspection
  • Proven user interface common to all PresencePLUS sensors
  • Intuitive setup procedure and common graphical interface; supports nine languages
  • Ethernet, serial, flexible discrete I/O and real-time video output in the same full-featured sensor
  • Exports inspections, images and results using the Microsoft ActiveX platform
