Product Overview

The EE-SX670 provides fixed-gap through-beam sensing in a compact U-shaped form, enabling reliable triggering when parts or tabs pass through the slot. It is commonly used in feeder systems, print mechanisms, and compact assembly devices that require stable detection timing. Its design supports consistent operation in high-cycle environments where signal repeatability is essential.

FAQ for EE-SX670

What is EE-SX670 mainly used for?
It is mainly used for detecting small parts or edges passing through a fixed 5mm slot in compact automation mechanisms.
Why use a slot sensor instead of diffuse sensing?
A slot sensor provides more stable geometry and often better repeatability for edge and tab detection.
Is EE-SX670 suitable for high-cycle operation?
Yes. It is commonly applied in repetitive mechanisms requiring consistent trigger timing.
