Fiber Optic Sensor for Small Parts and Tight Spaces
A fiber optic sensor combines a fiber amplifier with a flexible fiber optic cable. The small sensing head fits where a normal photoelectric sensor cannot, and detects very small parts, thin edges and objects in hot or tight spots. Voxintech supplies fiber optic cables and amplifiers across India. Learn more about the how fiber sensing works.

Frequently Asked Questions
Through-beam or diffuse fiber – which should I choose?
Through-beam fibers (separate transmit and receive heads) give the longest range and detect the smallest parts. Diffuse fibers use a single head and are easier to install where only one side is accessible.
