Basic Information

Ultra-small diameter fibers with a compact head ensure precision centering accuracy to stably detect minute parts
Features
■ It is suitable for sensing in narrow locations and sensing minute objects because the fiber tip is a thin sleeve.
■ The 40 mm 1.575 in sleeve type can be bent in any direction.
<Thru-beam type> FT-E13/FT-E23 Ultra-small diameter fiber
Centering of 1/10 mm or less
Ultra-small diameter fibers with a compact head ensure precision centering accuracy* to stably detect minute parts.
Minute sensing only possible with ultra small fiber
● Detection of fine-pitch connector pins
Ultra-small diameter fiber with ø0.125 mm ø0.005 in beam axis is able to detect the insertion or bending of fine-pitch connector pins.
● Detection of tiny chips
Fiber can be installed with only the ø0.25 mm ø0.010 in sleeve close to the minute section.
Stainless steel fittings are used for the fiber head of all models.
●Clearly conforms to RoHS
●Can be used for secondary battery
●Improved mounting strength
Application
Introducing a tough fiber that transcends common knowledge!
It has toughness that can be used in moving parts, toughness that can be bent with precision,and high-quality for all purposes.
It changes common knowledge about fibers.
* Bending radius: R10 mmR0.394 in, Reciprocating bending: 180°
