Non-Contact “One-to-Four” Double-Sheet Detector 1600S: A New Cost-Reduction and Efficiency Solution for Stamping Lines

Introduction: Have You Noticed the “Hidden Costs” and “Efficiency Bottlenecks” in Stamping Production?

In automated stamping production, double-sheet misfeeds are one of the leading causes of mold damage, product scrap, and production line downtime. Adding to the pressure, high-performance imported double-sheet detectors, while reliable, come with high purchase and maintenance costs that continuously erode profit margins.

It’s time for a change! Atonm presents a breakthrough solution—the all-new 1600S One-to-Four Non-Contact Double-Sheet Detector.

More than just a “one-to-four” domestic detector, it is specifically designed to address the pain points of imported equipment. Delivering performance comparable to top international brands, it empowers your production line to achieve real cost reduction and efficiency improvement.

Why the 1600S Is Your Superior Choice

1. Zero Blind Spots in Detection—One-to-Four Design for High-Speed LinesKey Feature: Four pairs of probes supporting multi-station, multi-point synchronous detection.Value to You: Whether handling large sheets or complex-shaped workpieces, the 1600S provides broader coverage, completely eliminating blind spots. Detection efficiency is several times higher than traditional single- or dual-point devices, perfectly matching the production rhythm of high-speed stamping lines.

2. Flexible Changeovers—Sensor Activation Within RecipesKey Feature: The same recipe can detect sheets of different thicknesses, with any pair of sensors independently activated or deactivated.Value to You: Material changeovers no longer require cumbersome recipe switching. Simply adjust settings to flexibly configure detection points for different sizes and shapes. This flexible design significantly improves changeover efficiency and equipment utilization.

3. Broad Operational Adaptability—Compatibility, Stability, and Safety Guaranteed

1. Expanded Detection Range: Compatible with ferromagnetic and non-ferromagnetic metals, supporting a thickness range of 0.2–6.0 mm. From thin to thick sheets, the 1600S easily adapts to diverse applications.

2. Stable Output Results: Uses a “hold output” mode to ensure the PLC system can read signals reliably and repeatedly, preventing missed detections caused by momentary signal loss.

3. Safety-Locked Double-Sheet Hold Function: Once a double sheet is detected, the signal remains latched until cleared via external IO or Profinet communication. This mechanism enforces manual intervention, eliminating the risk of operators ignoring instantaneous alarms and continuing stamping, further protecting mold safety.

4. High-Efficiency Changeovers—One-Click Access to 999 Recipe Sets

Key Feature: Storage capacity increased from the industry standard of 200 sets to 999 recipe sets.

Value to You: For complex production lines with frequent material and specification changes, the 999 recipes allow pre-storing detection parameters for all products. One-click access enables rapid changeovers, greatly improving efficiency for multi-material and multi-specification sheet production.

5. Smart & Easy Integration—Mainstream Protocols Link Data Seamlessly

Key Feature: Supports IO-Link, Profinet, EtherCAT, and other mainstream industrial protocols.

Value to You:Transparent Data: Real-time upload of detection status, equipment parameters, and even diagnostic information to PLC/MES systems, enabling predictive maintenance.Intelligent Commissioning: Remotely call any of the 999 stored recipes via communication protocols, achieving “parameterized recipes, one-click line change,” significantly reducing downtime during changeovers.Easy Integration: Whether your production line is based on Siemens (Profinet), Beckhoff (EtherCAT), or other mainstream control systems, the 1600S easily adapts, reducing complexity and integration costs.

The 1600S One-to-Four Double-Sheet Detector embodies our deep insight and technical expertise in addressing stamping industry pain points. It is designed for core applications such as robotic feeding, high-speed stamping lines, automotive parts, and home appliance metal stamping, delivering reliable performance and flexible configurations to provide the best practice path for cost reduction and efficiency improvement.
