Wireless, not cabled: according to this principle, wireless switches, and sensors from steute guarantee safe, reliable, and cable-free signal transmission in a wide range of applications. One interesting area for this solution is plastic injection molding, especially multi-component processes which often involve machines with rotary plates. These plates enable the main part of the construction […]

EL5072 EtherCAT terminal enables direct connection of inductive displacement sensors
The new EL5072 EtherCAT Terminal from Beckhoff enables direct connection of up to two inductive displacement sensors, including transducers in LVDT and half-bridge designs or inductive angular position sensors in the RVDT version. This means that precise position and distance measurements, such as in-process control or the control of joining processes, are possible in a […]
ProSense inductive proximity sensors from AutomationDirect
AutomationDirect has added a variety of new ProSense inductive proximity sensors to their portfolio. Added are 8mm triple-sensing inductive proximity sensors in flush and non-flush mounting options, which can detect ferrous metals up to a distance of 6mm. Also new are inductive proximity sensors with a metal face to provide more durable protection, with environmental […]
New Balluff inductive washdown sensors
Like the other inductive sensors in our portfolio, these provide wear-resistant, non-contact position detection of metallic objects. These, however, are members of Balluff’s Smart Automation and Monitoring System (SAMS) portfolio—SAMS. That means they’re packed with additional features. First, they include condition monitoring which reports the sensor’s internal temperature, relative humidity, and inclination, plus vibration monitoring in […]
ICs for interfacing inductive sensors, Part 2
Designers who use inductive proximity sensors have a choice of high-performance signal-conditioning interface ICs, each offering different sets of features, functions, and capabilities. The first part of this article discussed some of the sensing opportunities and looked at an IC from Texas Instruments. This part looks at ICs from Renesas and Microchip Technology. Renesas IPS2550 […]
