The FT 50 C white-light colour sensor is one of the most important innovations that SensoPart has placed on the sensor
market in recent years. The scanner, awarded a prestigious innovation prize, offers a considerably expanded range of functions and particularly user-friendly operation compared to conventional colour sensors.

The compact sensor can administrate up to 5 reference colours or colour ranges internally. These can either be taught-in or, particularly easily, scanned-in. Separate tolerance values for colour and intensity can be defined for each taught-in reference colour.
In practice, this function proves helpful when, for example, labels with fluctuating print quality must be reliably detected. The tolerances are automatically determined when the colours are scanned in. As a result of its special patented optical system – the optical "funnel" – the FT 50 C also achieves an above-average depth of field.
It can thus easily detect even inexactly transported, moving or vibrating target objects, e.g. workpieces on a conveyor belt. Rapidly moving objects are also reliably detected thanks to the high switching frequency of up to 500 Hz.
