CW Series - Touchless Switch

OVERVIEW

FA sites and areas with high regulation cleanliness levels

Technologies related to "non-contact," "image processing," and "antibacterial/antiviral" are of particular importance. Today, just as the way of working in companies has changed dramatically and the use of networks has advanced, all kinds of innovations are being created in manufacturing and other production sites and in logistics.

Innovation with technology that does not touch the FA industry

Today, when all industries are facing various social challenges, and the FA industry is no different.

To respond to the diversification of the workforce due to the decrease in the working population and shortage of skilled workers, and to address the shortage of labor by reviewing operational efficiency itself, new workplace environments, such as IoT, are required.

One of the expected solutions to these issues is the development of touchless technology with automatic optimization of control. It is expected that the realization of automatic doors and non-contact touch panels will be increasingly demanded in the future.

With the developed CW Series Touchless Switches, we hope that it opens the door to a diverse range of human resources, including people with behavioral and movement impairments who have had difficulty operating the system in the past, and will serve as a catalyst for further innovation.

KEY FEATURES

Responds even with no contact

Near-infrared diffuse reflection is used as detection method, and the detection distance can be adjusted.

The unique lens structure limits the detection range to the front of the product to prevent false triggering.

KEY FEATURES

Detection is achievable

Many situations make it difficult to press a switch near a parking ticket issuing machine or a traffic light pushbutton, such as when a person is unable to pull over, uses a wheelchair or assistive device, or has a disability that prevents the person from acting or moving.

IDEC Touchless Switches can detect and operate a human hand or finger even at a considerable distance away. By utilizing near-infared reflectance, hand detection distance is adjustable from approximately 70 to 270mm. The sensitivity control on the back of the switch allows adjustment of the detection distance to suit the location of use.

This system can improve the social infrastructure and well-being of people by providing a more comfortable operating environment for all types of people and their usage situations.
