Industrial applications for SICK reflectors: Detection of transparent materials with ClearSens
HAMARI

In modern industries, detecting transparent materials such as glass, plastic, or films remains a major challenge. Traditional photoelectric sensors often struggle with these difficult-to-detect surfaces. SICK, a global leader in industrial sensors, offers an innovative solution: the WL12G-3 ClearSens, combined with optimised reflectors, to provide precise and reliable detection.

Why choose the WL12G-3 ClearSens?

The WL12G-3 ClearSens is designed for applications where the detection of transparent surfaces is critical. Its advanced technology reduces false positives and ensures stable detection, even on extremely thin or reflective materials.

Main advantages:

  • Reliable detection: Reduces errors on packaging or transparent parts.
  • High precision: Captures the finest or partially transparent objects.
  • Versatility: Compatible with various SICK reflectors for an installation suited to each industrial environment.

Concrete applications

Pharmaceutical industry: Detection of glass or plastic bottles on filling and packaging lines.

Food packaging: Control of plastic films on packaging lines to avoid errors and production losses.

Electronic industry: Identification of transparent components on automated assembly lines.

SEO Benefits and Productivity

The combination of the WL12G-3 ClearSens with SICK reflectors allows:

  • To increase productivity.
  • To reduce production downtime.
  • To ensure consistent quality on the automated lines.

This ClearSens technology is a major asset for industries looking to automate while minimising errors related to difficult-to-detect materials.


For environments where transparent materials are ubiquitous, the WL12G-3 ClearSens + SICK reflectors combo provides a reliable and robust solution. It offers precision, safety, and performance. Adapting your production line with this technology ensures optimal detection and smooth production.
