The SICK MICS3-CBAZ401Z1P01 is an ultra-compact contrast sensor designed for high-precision detection of marks, labels, prints, or color differences on surfaces. It emits a focused red light to distinguish between light and dark contrasts, making it ideal for applications requiring accurate registration, alignment, or validation in tight spaces. Common uses include packaging, printing, labeling, and automated assembly systems.
