Cylindrical type optical fibers from Panasonic are precision-engineered sensing components designed for industrial automation environments. These fibers feature a robust cylindrical form factor, typically available in diameters such as 1.5 mm, 2.2 mm, or 3.0 mm, and are constructed with high-grade plastic or glass cores for reliable light transmission. They operate across a wide temperature range, often from -40°C to +70°C, and offer bending radii as low as 1 mm for flexible installation in tight spaces. Compatible with Panasonic photoelectric sensors, these fibers provide diffuse or through-beam detection modes, with sensing distances varying from a few millimeters to several meters depending on the model. Key specifications include numerical aperture (NA) values around 0.5, attenuation losses below 0.2 dB/m, and IP67 protection ratings for dust and moisture resistance. Known globally as fiber optic cables, light guides, or optical fiber sensors, these components are essential for precise object detection in automated systems.
These optical fibers are deployed across diverse industrial sectors, including automotive manufacturing for part presence verification, packaging lines for label detection, and electronics assembly for component alignment. They are commonly integrated into control panels, conveyor systems, and robotic workcells, where space constraints demand compact sensing solutions. In cleanroom environments, their non-metallic construction prevents contamination, while in heavy machinery, their immunity to electromagnetic interference ensures stable performance. Applications extend to material handling, food processing, and pharmaceutical production, where reliable detection of transparent, reflective, or small objects is critical.
The category includes subcategories such as standard cylindrical fibers (e.g., FD-61, FD-62), coaxial fibers (e.g., FD-61G, FD-62G), and high-flex fibers (e.g., FD-61F, FD-62F). Key article codes follow a pattern like FD-XX-XXXX, where 'FD' denotes fiber optic, the first two digits indicate diameter or series, and subsequent digits specify length or termination type. For instance, FD-61-10 represents a 1.5 mm diameter fiber with a 2-meter length and M3 threaded tip. Other notable codes include FD-62-20 for 2.2 mm fibers and FD-63-30 for 3.0 mm variants. These articles are often paired with Panasonic sensor amplifiers like the FX-300 series for complete detection systems.
