A photo-interrupter is a sensor that arranges the light-emitting component and light-receiving component face-to-face and packages them together. It applies the principle that light is interrupted when an object passes through the sensor. Therefore, photo-interrupters are widely used in many fields like speed measurement.
- Detection of movements in position, tape detector, tape loading control, and contactless switch.
- Detection of objects, positioning and counting, speed measurement, or detection in other automatic control devices.
- Material level control, travel control, cut-to-length fissure, material cutting detection, and burglar alarm.
