Product Overview
The Omron GD-10 is a high-precision sensor head from the GD-Series metal double-feed detection system It is manufactured by Omron Corporation. Hengyixin Automation ships this sensor from our Xiamen warehouse with a 30-day DOA return window and a datasheet PDF included in the box. Two GD-10 heads face each other across a 30 mm gap and detect double-layer overlap of metal sheets down to 0.01 mm thick. Sensing is by electromagnetic induction rather than photoelectric, so dust, water, and oil film on the target do not trigger false reads. Typical uses are lead-frame double-feed detection on stamping presses and aluminium-foil tablet-pack counting on packaging lines. Key specs: Function Sensor head (detector only); requires a GD-C1 / GD-C2 / GD-C3 controller; Sensing Method Electromagnetic induction (not photoelectric), rejects dust and oil film; Sensing Gap 30 mm between paired heads (high-precision variant); Minimum Detectable Thickness 0.01 mm metal foil or sheet overlap; Compatible Controllers GD-C1 (basic), GD-C2 (RS-232C), GD-C3 (multi-channel); Standard Sensing Object 80 x 80 mm metal sheet; Cable 3 m standard to controller, 10 m and 20 m extended options; Body / Mounting M18-class head with mounting bracket and M3 hardware.
Key Features
- GD-Series high-precision metal double-feed detection sensor head, 30 mm gap between paired heads, 0.01 mm foil detection
- Electromagnetic induction sensing rather than photoelectric, rejects false triggers from dust, water, and oil film
- Pairs only with the GD-C1 / GD-C2 / GD-C3 controller; 7-LED bar graph and 8 sensitivity presets on the controller
- M18-class body ships with mounting bracket and M3 hardware; 3 m standard cable, 10 m and 20 m options for press beds
- SKU: GD-10
- Series: Omron GD-Series metal double-feed detection system
Best-Fit Applications
- Lead-frame double-feed detection on a semiconductor stamping press where missed overlaps jam the die and the M18 high-precision head fits the existing bracket
- Aluminium-foil tablet-pack counting on a pharmaceutical line where the GD-10 reads through 0.05 mm foils without false triggers from shiny packaging film
- Spare replacement on a metal-stamping cell that already uses a GD-C2 controller and needs to add a second head pair without changing the controller
Buying Checklist
- Pick the GD-10 for a high-precision 30 mm-gap metal double-feed detection sensor head that pairs with the GD-C1, GD-C2 or GD-C3 controller.
- Pick the GD-C1 controller to pair with the GD-10 head when the cabinet needs a basic amplifier without RS-232C channel management.
- Pick a through-beam photoelectric sensor such as the E3Z-T86 instead when the application needs object detection rather than metal-overlap detection.

FAQ for GD-10
What is the Omron GD-10 used for?
It is the GD-Series high-precision metal double-feed detection sensor head. Two heads face each other across a 30 mm gap and reject metal sheets or foils that overlap on feeders - the typical stamping-press and tablet-pack-counting application.
GD-10 vs E3Z-T86 - what is the difference?
The GD-10 detects double-layer metal overlap by electromagnetic induction; the E3Z-T86 detects object presence by through-beam photoelectric sensing at 15 m. They solve different problems. Use the GD-10 for double-feed detection on metal lines and the E3Z-T86 for general object detection on conveyors.
Does the GD-10 need a controller?
Yes. The GD-10 is a sensor head only and must be wired to a GD-C1, GD-C2, or GD-C3 controller. The controller holds the 8 sensitivity presets, drives the 7-LED detection-level bar graph, and provides the OUT-1 / OUT-2 / ALM transistor outputs to the PLC.
What is the minimum foil thickness the GD-10 can detect?
0.01 mm for double-layer overlap, with a standard 80 x 80 mm sensing object. Aluminium foil and thin lead frames are typical targets. Below 0.01 mm the controller's high-precision detection mode is required; consult the GD-Series brochure for the correction factors on non-ferrous targets.
