Balluff mini.s

Compact sensors for factory automation

Compact
Sensors for
Factory Automation

Mini design. Maxi performance!
The increasing miniaturization of assemblies demands the smallest
and lightest possible yet still high-performance components. Balluff
mini sensors meet these requirements. With small dimensions andtop performance, they offer a great degree of freedom in design andmake possible considerably more applications. With mini sensors,
users have greater flexibility.
Miniature sensors are available from Balluff in all operating principles:
as inductive, photoelectric, magnetic, capacitive and as ultrasonicsensors. Available for each sensor technology are compact inductive
couplers, space-saving fieldbus modules and RFID in mini versions.

www.balluff.com

The extensive Balluff product line includes mini sensors andcompact connection technology which are ideally suited for factory
automation – especially for robotics, handling and production lines.
Because particularly in robotics, on production lines or in handling
applications, low weight is a key requirement for being able toachieve fast cycle times. Another advantage is the reduced spacerequirement, which increases flexibility in a tightly packed machinecompartment. The fact that Balluff mini.s guarantee high precision
ensures the reliability required here.

Powerful and compact
Inductive mini sensors guarantee position sensing in rough environments. And do so in confined spaces. Because their electronics
are fully integrated and external amplifiers are not necessary. Theirlow weight makes possible applications with extremely fast accelerations, allowing pick-and-place to be performed with ease.
Inductive mini.s are characterized by an optimum price/performance
ratio. They are easy to install and can be fully integrated even in
narrow assemblies such as linear slides, valves and actuators. As
a result, position sensing is now possible where there was neverbefore space for a sensor. And assemblies can be further reducedin size.
SuperShorties and slim designs
Inductive mini sensors are available with especially small diameter:with 3 mm, 4 mm and 5 mm. And as compact SuperShorties with ahousing length of just 6 mm. They are the shortest inductive sensors
on the market.

Mini Sensors■■The most compact on the market: can be fully integrated■■Unmatched in thinness and, as SuperShorty, unrivaled in shortness■■Low weight (0.7 g) for extreme accelerations

Photoelectric
Mini Sensors
You can count on the photoelectric mini.s: if small parts need to
be precisely detected in applications with limited space and if longranges are important. They work absolutely reliably from less than
one millimeter to distances of up to three meters.
With their range of product variants, they are a reliable solution to allapplications and offer a great degree of freedom in design.
Advanced laser technology, homogeneous red light or innovative
pinpoint technology stand for high process accuracy. Diffuse
sensors with background suppression reliably eliminate interfering
influences. And the photoelectric mini.s are simple to operate.

In the tightest installation conditions

Fiber Optics■■The tightest installation conditions■■Variety of end pieces■■Maximum flexibility

If very small parts need to be reliably detected and if tight installation
conditions leave no space for even a mini sensor, fiber optics are thechoice.
They bring high light intensity and create space, since they are to bevery precisely positioned. Optical head and sensor electronics areconnected to one another via elastic fibers. As a result, sensor information is transmitted in the highest quality and the smallest parts arereliably detected.
By means of a variety of end pieces – with straight or angled light
exit, flexible optical head or coaxial fiber arrangement – and various
fiber diameters, plastic fiber optics offer users maximum flexibility.
Particularly as plastic fiber optics can also be tailored to the desired
length.

11Capacitive Sensors

Detect all materials – independent of dust, reflections,color and properties of an object

In difficult environments, if dust, reflections or object properties andcolor could influence a measurement, capacitive sensors are
the right choice. Precisely monitor stack heights, detect solids andliquids. Through glass or plastic container walls up to 4 mm thickor in direct contact. Because their Teflon® sensing surface makes
them particularly resistant. Robust stainless steel housings are designed for use under even demanding conditions.
The flat disc design offers a large switching distance and, at thesame time, requires particularly little space.
In addition, fine adjustment of the capacitive mini sensors is easily
performed by means of a separate sensor amplifier.

Ultrasonic Sensors

Universal use for distance measurement andposition detection

The small ultrasonic sensors in rectangular housing operate with highresolution, leaving nothing to be desired in terms of accuracy.
For challenging measurement tasks, BUS R06K1..02/007 and
BUS R06K1..02/015 can be upgraded with an attachment waveguide. This allows measurements to be performed in bore holes andopenings with diameters > 5 mm. The BUS R06K1..02/015, with itsvery short response delay and high switching frequency of 125 Hz,
is particularly well suited for reliably detecting fast procedures.
For the simultaneous operation of up to ten sensors in a constricted
space, the series is equipped with a synchronization input. The wide
range of variants with switching output or with current or voltage
analog output in five operating scanning ranges make the sensor
family suitable for nearly limitless applications.

Magnetically Coded Position andAngle Measurement System

Absolute measuring system for short strokes

Inaccuracy and tolerance shifts have a negative effect on production
quality. Directly measuring systems provide assistance here. They
detect the current position directly on the carriage or the load support. The new BML-S1H magnetically encoded position and angle
measurement system measures highly dynamic applications exactly

and absolutely. It operates contact- and wear-free. Even external factors such as dirt and temperature do not affect it. With theunbeatably small sensor head, it is ideal for linear guides, pick-andplace applications, drive feedback or vibration welding.

Not only do slim assemblies need mini-sensors, they also requireconnection technology in compact and high-performance designs.
Because only so can the design freedom and flexibility of the minisensors be truly exhausted.
With mini masters, space-saving passive splitters and small,valve terminal connectors in IO-Link designs, Balluff offers efficient,cost-effective solutions. IO-Link thereby reduces the work andexpense associated with wiring, testing and hardware. With simple,
unshielded, economical standard cables, mini sensors are installed
quickly and cost-effectively. And mini sensors are quickly and reliably
configured through IO-Link connection technology via the controller.
Moreover, continuous diagnostics ensure reliable system operation,
as they facilitate timely maintenance.

Compact Inductive Couplers
For fast, contact-free connection

For robotics, the inductive IO-Link coupler in the compact 40×40
housing is ideal. It combines rapid format changes, freedom ofwear and great flexibility. Inductive couplers eliminate the need formechanical plug contacts, since they contactlessly transmit signals –absolutely reliably.
The IO-Link interface of the compact inductive coupler ensures thesimplest installation. Because IO-Link is quickly wired.
