Innovation for the Beverage Industry

Monday, November 14, 2011 by David Sheets
Baumer recently introduced a real attention-grabber for the beverage industry---SmartReflect, thesmart
 first light barrier that operates without a reflector and recognizes all types of beverage packaging, including transparent glass or plastic bottles.

Marshall Wolf Automation, your full-line industrial automation distributor, is an authorized Baumer distributor. 


In Baumer SmartReflect light barriers, the light beam is closed by, for instance, a machine component.  Detection takes place regardless of the color and material of the background and the relevant object.  This dispenses with the separate reflectors or receivers customarily required until now.

In the beverage industry, photoelectric sensors or light barriers are most commonly used in filling and packaging applications. Especially for such operations, Baumer offers SmartReflect in a hygiene-and-washdown design with protection class IP 69K and its proTect+ leaktight concept.
