PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
KEYENCE CORP FU-95 - Fiber Optic Sensor Unit
The KEYENCE FU-95 is a general-purpose fiber optic sensor unit designed for precise object detection in industrial environments. This passive sensing head transmits and receives light signals, interfacing with a dedicated fiber optic amplifier for signal processing and output. It is suitable for applications requiring detection of small objects, position verification, and high-speed counting across manufacturing, packaging, and assembly lines.
