Proximity sensor
The W27 Multipac photoelectric proximity sensor uses two receiver arrays to ensure continuous detection and has a sensor range of up to 500 mm.
The W27 MultiPac photoelectric proximity sensor uses two redundant receiver arrays to detect difficult targets such as bundled bottles in the packaging and food and beverage industries. The W27 MultiPac provides overhead counting and indexing to ensure bundles are both created and transported properly. With two independent receiver arrays, the W27 MultiPac ensures continuous detection when diffused light is misdirected from bundled surfaces. A single, high-intensity, visible red emitting LED aids in alignment and provides reliable detection despite dirt and dust build-up. The W27 MultiPac is able to detect shiny, glossy or dark targets within its foreground without signal interruptions. Using a simple teach button, the sensing range of the W27 MultiPac can be adjusted up to 500 mm.

2012 Salary Survey
In a year when manufacturing continued to lead the economic rebound, it makes sense that plant manager bonuses rebounded. Plant Engineering’s annual Salary Survey shows both wages and bonuses rose in 2012 after a retreat the year before.
Average salary across all job titles for plant floor management rose 3.5% to $95,446, and bonus compensation jumped to $15,162, a 4.2% increase from the 2010 level and double the 2011 total, which showed a sharp drop in bonus.
