INDUSTRY COMPONENT

Sensor Mounting Bracket

A precision bracket for mounting sensors on orientation/selection tracks in industrial automation systems.

Component Specifications

Definition
A specialized mounting bracket designed to securely position and align sensors on orientation and selection tracks in automated manufacturing systems. This component ensures precise sensor placement for accurate detection, measurement, and control of parts moving through the track system.
Working Principle
Provides rigid mechanical support and precise positioning for sensors, maintaining optimal alignment relative to the track and moving components. The bracket isolates sensors from vibration and thermal expansion while allowing for fine adjustments in multiple axes.
Materials
Typically manufactured from 6061-T6 aluminum alloy or 304 stainless steel, with optional anodized or powder-coated finishes for corrosion resistance.
Technical Parameters
  • Mounting Type Track-mounted with adjustable slots
  • Surface Finish Ra 3.2 μm or better
  • Weight Capacity Up to 2.5 kg
  • Adjustment Range ±15mm in X/Y axes, ±10° in rotation
  • Temperature Range -20°C to +85°C
  • Vibration Damping >85% reduction at 50-200 Hz
Standards
ISO 2768-1, DIN 7168, ISO 9001:2015
