The new ABR Series Barcode Readers from Banner Engineering are imager-based barcode readers that can read even the most difficult-to-read 1D and 2D barcodes, such as, barcodes printed on highly reflective surfaces along with low quality and damged codes.
The Banner Q5X Series is a high-power laser distance sensor that is easy to install. It can be mounted anywhere with its IP67 rated housing. Accurate laser triangulation sensor from 9.5 cm to 2 meters.
The Q5X sensor solves difficult distance-based applications, even at acute angles. The key benefits of the Q5X sensors include:
Detection of clear and reflective objects
Robust on black targets against a black background and black targets against a shiny metal background
Detection of multicolor packaging and targets of all colors
Error proofing
Extended range presence/absence
Besides easy programming, it also has real-time distance feedback for easy troubleshooting.
We would love to demonstrate how the Q5X Sensor can benefit your production. Schedule a demonstration.
Why is Machine Guarding Important?
What’s your strategy for machine failure?
Implementing the right maintenance strategy impacts your facility’s bottom line. With GraceSense Hot Spot Monitor (HSM), you will be able to find faults before they occur. The HSM is a non-conductive temperature monitor and alarming device that identifies hot spots, enabling you to predict failures in electrical equipment. It can spot temperature abnormalities in electrical connections of power distribution systems. Identifying faults before they occur saves money when unplanned outages, service interruptions, and equipment failures are avoided. Companies using predictive maintenance have seen a 35-45% reduction in unplanned downtime.

Section 179 of the Federal Income Tax Deduction can help your business save thousands of dollars each year. It does not come as a surprise that small businesses want to maximize their deductions to minimize how much they are taxed.So, what does this mean for small businesses?Your business can buy robots, and then make the robots pay for themselves
The Section 179 deduction for 2020 is $1,040,000 dollars. This means U.S. companies can deduct the full price of qualified equipment purchases, up to $1,040,000, with a “total equipment purchase” limit of $2,590,000. The deduction includes both new and used qualified equipment.
Low-touch. Zero-touch. No-touch. With social distancing and heightened awareness of health and safety, mitigating the number of human touches is critical.
How can you reduce the number of touches in your production facility? Companies interested in robotics and automation may not know where to begin.
Here are three easy steps to implement robotics and automation at your facility:
Start small.
Prove out the metrics.
Expand.
