The WF80-40B41CA00 Sick Fork Sensor is designed for accurate object detection in industrial automation systems. This WF80-40B41CA00 Sick Fork Sensor integrates 80 mm fork width, 42 mm fork depth, 0.2 mm minimum detectable object, and push-pull PNP/NPN switching output to ensure stable signal processing. It belongs to the WFE series and operates based on an optical detection principle for consistent sensing performance.
In conveyor systems, packaging lines, and automated assembly machines, the defined fork geometry enables reliable detection of thin materials, labels, and small components. Light/dark switching and 22 Β΅s jitter support precise switching behavior in repetitive production environments.
The WF80-40B41CA00 supports up to 100 mA output current and uses an M8 4-pin connector for structured panel integration. With IP65 enclosure rating, aluminum housing, and integrated circuit protection, this Sick Fork Sensor is suitable for demanding industrial conditions requiring dependable optical sensing.
