Label Gap Sensor FAQs

Straight answers to what buyers ask us most about Label Gap Sensor.

A label gap sensor detects the gap between labels, or the label itself, on a moving web so that labelling and packaging machines can position each label correctly. The sensors on this page use optical technology for opaque labels and ultrasonic technology for transparent labels, including transparent labels on a transparent backing.

Choose the optical version for non-transparent labels; it uses an infrared light source, has a 40 mm passage depth and handles object speeds up to 200 m/min. Choose the ultrasonic version for transparent labels; it has a 69 mm passage depth and handles up to 180 m/min. Both have a 3 mm passage width and an M8 4-pin connector.

Setup uses a teach-in button, so the sensor learns the label and gap on your actual material. You can select light ON or dark ON switching, and the output is 4-wire PNP or NPN to suit your PLC or label controller input. Connection is made through an M8 4-pin connector, which keeps wiring on the labelling head simple.

RB Automation supplies optical and ultrasonic label gap sensors from Ahmedabad, Gujarat, to packaging and labelling machine builders across India. Call +91 8511104864 or WhatsApp +91 9898739737 with your label type, web speed and PNP or NPN requirement, and the team will recommend the matching sensor for your line.

The price depends on whether you need the optical sensor for opaque labels or the ultrasonic sensor for transparent labels, on the output type and on the quantity. RB Automation shares pricing by quotation after confirming these details. Send your requirement through the inquiry form on this page or email contact@rbautomate.com for a quote.

Yes. Labelling and packaging machine builders can order label gap sensors in bulk from RB Automation for repeat machine production. Tell the team the label material, whether labels are transparent, the maximum web speed and your monthly or yearly quantity. RB Automation will prepare a volume quotation and can help you standardise one sensor type across your machines.
