In machine building, every new application often means another sensor variant – and over time, that adds up to significant complexity. Different setups require different detection tasks. The result is often a growing number of specialized sensors to manage, stock, and maintain. The MultiMode WTMxx takes a different approach by combining multiple sensing modes with continuous process insight via IO-Link in a single device. In that sense, it works like a joker in stock: one sensor that can be configured for different applications instead of requiring a dedicated variant for each one. → combines multiple sensing modes for different detection tasks → reduces sensor variant diversity in engineering and inventory → provides continuous distance data via IO-Link for better process insight → detects contamination early with DustAlert before performance is affected Rather than optimizing for a single, highly specific task, one sensor can cover multiple applications – helping reduce complexity where flexibility matters most. 👉 Learn more: https://okt.to/HmSkLi #SICKSensorIntellingence
