Wenglor Sensors

Wenglor are one of the most successful family-owned companies in the world of smart sensors and image processing technologies. This innovative family business was founded in 1983 by Dieter Baur in Tettnang, Lake Constance, Germany. Under the leadership of his sons, Fabian and Rafael Baur, Wenglor Sensoric Group has grown into a global player in the fields of sensor and machine vision. Their products are now an indispensable part of the world of automation.

Wenglor has more than 30 years of experience in developing intelligent sensor technologies, as well as safety and image processing systems. Their advanced communication standards and innovative, world-class products have made them a by-word for quality and efficiency in the field of sensors and automation. They fulfil both everyday and more complex requirements for businesses ranging from small start-ups to large international conglomerates.

    Wenglor’s photoelectronic sensors can detect or count objects without contact, measure distances with high accuracy, and identify colours, brightness or luminescence. Various mounting systems allow for easy, flexible installation. Fibre optic cables that can be connected to sensors allow them to be used under extreme conditions or in tight spaces, making this a versatile and resilient solution for many situations.

    Wenglor ultrasonic sensors are almost completely insensitive to interfering factors (such as extraneous light, dust, smoke, mist, vapor, lint, oily air, etc.). They are best suited for the detection of transparent and dark objects, reflective surfaces, shiny objects and of bulk materials and liquids. Ultrasonic sensors allow for the reliable detection and measurement of objects, independent of their material, colour, transparency and texture.

    Thanks to the lack of moving parts, these sensors are maintenance-free, wear-free, waterproof and resistant to dirt and shocks. They are short-circuit proof and can also be installed in any position. The service life of the sensors is not dependent on the switching frequency or number of measurement cycles. This makes them a fantastic and long-lasting solution for many automation tasks.

    Wenglor’s fluid sensor technology covers a broad range of more than 900 products including flow, pressure and temperature sensors. Flow sensors ascertain the speed at which liquid media flow within closed systems and they can also determine temperature. Pressure sensors measure the relative pressure of any desired media in closed systems. Temperature sensors determine the temperature of liquid and gaseous media, and permit reliable temperature monitoring within processes. The perfect solution for industries working with fluids.

    In addition to the comprehensive VisionSystem+, Wenglor’s portfolio of image processing products also includes the weQube modular image processing platform as Smart Camera, Vision Sensor and OCR Reader. Image processing and smart cameras have become an integral part of many production and manufacturing processes, as well as enhancing security for company premises and having many other vital applications in the modern workplace.

    2D/3D sensors measure objects 360° all the way around, precisely control the positions of robots, and inspect surfaces accurate to the micron. They are an essential part of many manufacturing settings, and Wenglor’s high quality products provide a reliable and high-spec solution for this sensor need.

    Wenglor 1D/2D and barcode scanners use different types of light to read each code. The light is reflected from the code elements onto a picture element in varying degrees and the image of the code that this produces is evaluated electronically using a decoder. The scanner can be adjusted by pressing on the auto button function, or externally via the interface.

    Wenglor safety technology handles complex, safety-relevant tasks in the automation world. Certified to the latest international standards, this technology protects people and provides protection for machines. As a vital component of any industrial setting, safety technology is indispensable. Wenglor provides the very best quality products so that you can feel confident in the health and safety of your team, your workplace, and your machinery.

    Wenglor was the first manufacturer to integrate Realtime Ethernet and Power over Ethernet (PoE) into sensors. Their innovative approach has marked them out as leaders in the field of industrial communication. Wenglor products are available with three globally established data protocols: PROFINET, EtherCAT and EtherNet/IP™.

    Wenglor system components secure, integrate, connect, expand and protect sensors, as well as image processing and safety systems. The mounting and connection technology, which is patented to some extent, is available in a variety of materials and variants.
