FAQ
Q1: What is the TAKEX MU10 Series?
A: The MU10 Series is a U-shaped through-beam mark sensor series designed for register-mark detection on transparent and translucent film. The current model is MU10N.
Q2: What is the sensing gap of MU10N?
A: The distance between the emitter and receiver is fixed at 10 mm.
Q3: Does MU10N require optical-axis adjustment?
A: No. The emitter and receiver are integrated into the same U-shaped housing, so separate alignment is unnecessary.
Q4: Can MU10N detect marks on transparent film?
A: Yes. MU10N is designed for detecting printed register marks along the edge of transparent and translucent film.
Q5: What translucent materials can MU10N detect?
A: It is suitable for translucent materials with 10–100% light transmittance, subject to mark density and actual material conditions.
Q6: What light source does MU10N use?
A: MU10N uses a 570 nm green LED.
Q7: How are Light-ON and Dark-ON signals provided?
A: Light-ON and Dark-ON signals are provided through two separate output leads.
Q8: What is the response time of MU10N?
A: The response time is 3 ms or less.
Q9: Does MU10N provide sensitivity adjustment?
A: Yes. A sensitivity adjustment and red light-reception indicator are provided for setup.
Q10: What applications are suitable for MU10N?
A: It is suited to packaging, food, and pharmaceutical equipment for register-mark detection on wrapping paper, transparent film, and translucent film.
