SENSING DEVICES
>> Digital Imaging
  Double Feed Sensor

  • The sensor detects mis-feeding of sheets of paper. It detects two sheets of paper at a time in a scanner.
  • It detects mis-feeding of papers with different thickness ranging from 35 ~ 200g.
  • Reliability of sensor has been improved with its self-check function.
 
  UV Media Sensor
Gloss sensing ( Positive & Diffused Reflection ) Differentiate between OHP, Glazed, Plain, Matte

Fluorescent degree distinction
  • Measured by UV-LED
  • Possible to divide into 4 stages
 
 
Other DI Sensors

  • Belt mark sensor
  • Toner end sensor
  • Toner density & color register mark sensor
  • RFID
  • SCU
