Position Sensors play an important role in our daily lives. A position sensor, as the name indicates, provides feedback on the position of the measurand by detecting the presence/absence of an object ...

Inductive proximity sensors are an essential component in industrial automation and control systems. They are widely used for reliable and non-contact detection of metallic objects in various ...

The ICB Series features a high performance potting material that is made from recycled corn by-product, which features a higher resistance to mechanical stress, thus providing increased reliability, ...

Non-contact sensing of a nearby object’s linear or rotary position in an electrically and mechanically harsh environment is a common system requirement. There are several ways to meet this objective, ...

Noncontact inductive proximity sensors are an essential part of automated welding cells in such applications as automotive, furniture, aerospace, and appliance production. In such a sensor, an ...

ifm presents new inductive proximity sensors in full metal housings in three sizes for safety applications: M12, M18 and M30 with a housing length of 60 mm. For use in mobile machinery, they are ...

A common application seen throughout the industrial and commercial sectors is proximity sensing—detecting when some object is physically close to a sensor. A variety of processes can be implemented ...

AutomationDirect has added new stainless-steel specialty inductive proximity sensors from Contrinex. These new proximity sensors are designed for extreme environments and are offered in 3mm to 50mm ...

Last week Belgian fabless chip company Melexis announced a unique inductive sensing IC that includes a tiny transformer, drive circuit and sense circuit, so Electronics Weekly decided to have a closer ...

Abstract: This paper deals with the optimization of a customary inductive proximity sensor. The focus in this paper lays on the significance of the side metal effect in magnetic sensors, which has ...

The inductive sensor works on the principle of Faraday's Law and Lenz's Law. according to Faraday when the current passes through the conductor the electromagnatic field is created (current Passed to ...
