Banner MAHE6A Light Curtain Emitter Unit

Module Feature

MAHE6A belongs to Banner MINI-ARRAY high precision measuring light curtain series. It is the infrared emitter unit,matched with corresponding receiver and control module. 163mm effective array length,64 beams with 2.5mm beam pitch. Dual staggered infrared LED columns realize high resolution object detection. Aluminum extrusion housing,compact slim profile. Widely used for on-the-fly dimension measurement,edge guiding,web tension control,hole inspection and parts counting on automated machinery.

Working principle

Emitter transmits infrared beam array to receiver. When object interrupts beams,the system calculates blocked beam position to get workpiece size or edge position. Real-time measurement data is sent to PLC or host controller for closed-loop process adjustment. Built-in circuit monitors power and LED status.

Onboard components

Infrared LED array,drive circuit,signal processing PCB,aluminum housing,status LED,quick-disconnect M12 connector.

LED indicators

Power LED,fault LED,beam status indicator.

Hardware self-diagnosis

Power supply monitoring,LED array self-check,communication link diagnosis,over temperature protection.

Programming software

Banner MINI-ARRAY configuration software,used for parameter setup,diagnostic reading and measurement tuning.
