As a member of sensor group, the photoelectric switch is always welcomed by people with its outstanding performance. This device has Small volume, more function, short response time and higher detection accuracy; meanwhile, its ability of anti-inference is strong. In this time and age, the application of the photoelectric switch is becoming wider and wider. Asia is the important market to develop this device when Europe and North-America has not gone out of the influence taken by economic crisis. The photoelectric switch will grow steadily in the future years. It is predicated that the world’s market share of this device will reach 1.2 billion in the year of 2013. When it comes to the Chinese market, the large investment on the industrial area and the increase of manpower cost makes the application of the photoelectric switch wider.

Certainly, we should pay more attention to the disadvantage of this device. Although the demand is high in this market, other products also can replace it, such as the optical grating products. Therefore, the price is the main element to decide the market currently. Nowadays, a standard of price is not existed; therefore, the competition is fierce. Luckily, more and more manufacturers have realized this situation, and more and more brands are emerging.

Under the trend of industrial automation, some manufacturers of the sensor are trying to change, making their main products as the key. They provide the customer with solutions which is based on the products, and this method is widely used in the development of high level sensor manufacturers. What is more, the network communication technique has large influence on the industrial automation; therefore, the data transmission between the sensor and PLC is becoming more and more frequent and the IO-link has become the communication criteria of the high-end sensor. The related integrated circuit is UT131.
