Vibration Sensors
-
ifm Vibration monitoring systems help you avoid unplanned downtime in the middle of production by providing vibration data to assess and evaluate the condition of your machine in real time. That way, you can schedule maintenance of machines when it fits your schedule. Using the same vibration monitoring technology, you can detect and prevent expensive machine damage in real-time.

Optical Identification
-
Application areas of the 1D/2D code reader range from product tracking and product control to product identification.The sensor can read 1D and 2D codes regardless of their position. Even if up to 25% of the code information becomes damaged or soiled, it is still read correctly. The reader can also be used for optical character recognition (OCR), e.g. in order to identify products based on type labels or serial numbers.
