FGL-IK Infrared fork sensors

FGL-IK infrared fork sensors from SensoPart provide reliable object detection in challenging lighting conditions. Featuring an integrated transmitter and receiver in a fixed U-shaped housing, they eliminate the need for alignment and maintain consistent performance in environments with high ambient light or reflective surfaces.

These sensors use an infrared LED light source, making them suitable for detecting dark or low-contrast objects, even on reflective or uneven backgrounds. Available in various fork widths and depths, FGL-IK models support switching frequencies up to 10 kHz for high-speed automation tasks.

Applications include edge detection, small part counting, and presence verification in assembly and packaging systems. Select models include IO-Link functionality for advanced diagnostics, parameterization, and integration into Industry 4.0 environments.
