Color Mark Recognition for Packaging Lines
DM-LX101 Color Code Sensor
A compact sensor for recognizing color marks and registration codes on packaging materials. The DM-LX101 gives converting, printing and packaging equipment a clear NPN normally open signal for accurate cut, seal, label and print-position control.
Keep Packaging Registration on Track
Incorrect cutting and sealing positions can create film waste, poor packaging appearance and unplanned line stops. The XSZ DM-LX101 recognizes a selected color mark so the controller can synchronize the packaging process with the printed material.
- Detect registration marks for repeatable packaging alignment
- Support color-based tracking on film, labels and printed substrates
- NPN normally open output for compatible sinking-input PLC circuits
- Compact body supports close installation on packaging machinery

Designed for Faster, Cleaner Registration Control
01 / COLOR MARKAccurate Position Trigger
Use a printed reference mark to trigger cutting, sealing or label placement at the intended point.
02 / SIMPLE SETUPOn-Body Controls
The visible setup controls support practical adjustment during commissioning and product changeovers.
03 / 24 VDCIndustrial Control Ready
The DC three-wire NPN normally open output supports compatible industrial control circuits.

Where the DM-LX101 Adds Value
Use the DM-LX101 when print position, color marks or registration codes must be recognized reliably as material moves through the machine.
Flexible Packaging
Track printed registration marks on films before cutting, sealing and pouch forming operations.
Labeling Machines
Use a printed mark as a reference point for label dispensing and product-position synchronization.
Printing and Converting
Support web tracking and repeat alignment where print position affects downstream processing.
Automated Sorting
Recognize a required color feature to help control routing, inspection or simple product differentiation.
Selection and Setup Checklist
Test the real mark and background
Color recognition depends on the mark color, contrast, substrate gloss, print quality and background. Send samples or clear images of the material for a more accurate recommendation.
Match speed and mounting position
Confirm line speed, available mounting distance, material vibration and ambient light before fixing the sensor position.
Send These Details for Fast Selection
- Mark color and background color or a material sample
- Substrate material, gloss and print quality
- Line speed, mounting space and working distance
- PLC input type, cable length and production quantity
Product Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Can it detect any color mark?
The correct setup depends on contrast, substrate, gloss and ambient light. Provide the actual mark and background information so XSZ can confirm the application.
Can it connect to a PLC?
Yes. The DC three-wire NPN normally open output is intended for compatible sinking-input PLC circuits. Confirm the wiring diagram before connection.
What is the working distance?
Working distance should be confirmed against the material, mark size, line speed and installation space before final model selection.
Can XSZ support OEM orders?
Yes. Send the sample material, cable, labeling, packaging and quantity requirements for factory evaluation.
Need Pricing or a DM-LX101 Test Sample?
Send your color mark, background, material, line speed, mounting space and order quantity. XSZ will confirm the configuration before quotation.
