Top Photoelectric Sensors Suppliers and Manufacturers in the Middle East

Photoelectric sensors are non-contact devices that are designed based on the properties of light to detect various physical aspects such as distance, the presence or absence of objects, changes in body surface, and the exact position of objects. 

Photoelectric sensors use infrared or laser light for this purpose, hence they are also called optical sensors. These sensors have several important advantages over inductive sensors: 

  • These sensors do not depend on the material of different objects and can detect all objects with any material
  • They can detect objects at greater distances
  • The response time of these sensors is much higher

Photoelectric sensors are widely used in industrial factory automation and are produced in three different structures according to the part detection method, which are:

  • Diffuse Reflective Type
  • Diffuse Retro-Reflective Type
  • Through-Beam Type

The photoelectric sensor is one of the most important products in the industry that has many applications and many important companies in the world produce it. In the following, we will introduce the most famous photoelectric sensors suppliers and manufacturers in the middle east.
