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 ...

The LMP91300 is a complete analog front end (AFE) optimized for use in industrial inductive proximity sensors. The device directly converts the RP of the external LC tank into a digital value. Post ...

An example is the sensing of a rotary cam position. The oblong shape of the cam dictates use of a sensor able to detect different shapes and sizes. A simple prox sensor merely detects the presence or ...

Offered as a solution to increasing the size and inductive power of an inductive prox, the Prox Actuator increases prox target detection range up to 3.8" and uses an inexpensive, small-diameter sensor ...

Machines need sensors and transmitters to operate reliably and consistently. All it takes is a small drop in air pressure or a slight jam to cause a machine to crash; these sorts of problems can often ...

Application characteristics help specifiers choose the best discrete sensor type. Industrial automation systems depend on sensors to detect what is going on with machinery and products for effective ...

TURCK announces their analog+ proximity sensors have been enhanced to differentiate between varying types of metal during detection—independent of their distance from the sensor. Nov. 25, 2009 ...

Balluff of Florence, Kan. has released a new generation of inductive ring sensors that are designed to help whenever the infeed of small metal parts needs to be monitored. The company says the sensors ...

The Apple iPhone brought the benefits of integrated multi-sensor technology to the masses, and while the application of sensors and their associated algorithms has multiplied and changed the world ...

F76 series inductive sensors are a versatile sensing solution whose compact size and easy connectivity are well suited for small commercial machines. Related To: Pepperl+Fuchs, Inc. The inductive ...
