Pepperl+Fuchs WTS10-12/20/105 200958

The welding tip sensor WTS10 series is a contrast evaluation sensor with a large and homogeneous light spot fitted to check the quality of the welding cap's face after milling of the welding tip and which is widely used for industrial welding robots. After the milling process of the welding cap, both tips of the welding gun are inspected and defects such as inclusions, faulty milling or burrs are detected. Simultaneous control of the quality of both welding tip caps with one sensor is possible by providing two optical outputs on either side of the sensor housing. The WTS10 features an extended detection area of 11 mm diameter, an uniform lightspot over the full sensing range due to coaxial optics beam path, a new display concept, high switching accuracy, a homogenous light spot and improved position and tilting angle tolerance.
