TURCK introduced a further developed LI inductive linear position sensor. A new electronics architecture increases the effective output rate of the sensor from 1 to 5 kHz. In conjunction with the short signal run time (130 µs) and the highly resolved SSi output, the inductive linear position sensors can achieve the performance of potentiometers but […]

TURCK Miniature Magnetic Field Sensor for Short Stroke Cylinders
TURCK announces the BIM-UNTK, the shortest magnetic field sensor in this sector for detecting the piston position in compact pneumatic cylinders. The IP67-rated sensor features a length of only 19.7 mm, making it ideally suited for measuring particularly short hydraulic cylinders, pneumatic power clamps and grippers. Operators benefit from increased switch point accuracy, in addition […]
Sensors Provide Temperature Signals without an RTD Input Card
Integration that reduces system complexity is always a highly desirable goal. Turck’s TTM series are integrated miniature temperature transmitters. The units have analog output that eliminates the need for specialized RTD PLC input cards. This saves both space and cost associated with these cards. Stainless steel connections make the transmitters well-suited for food and beverage […]
Turck Incremental Magnetic Encoders Fit into Small Spaces
Squeezing an incremental encoder into a tight spot can be a problem. TURCK’s newest incremental magnetic encoders designed with a miniature 24-mm diameter housing can address the space issue in many applications. The non-contact Kübler by TURCK 2430 shaft and 2440 blind hollow shaft encoders operate between -20 to 85°C, and a maximum speed rating […]
BIM-UNR Dual Sensor For C-Groove Cylinders
Minneapolis, MN — TURCK’s BIM-UNR line of compact magnetic cylinder position sensors now includes a dual sensor designed for detecting short and long stroke C-groove cylinders. BIM-UNR dual sensors provide a distinct advantage by combining two sensors through one cable connection to speed installation, as well as lessen wire costs and connection points. This design […]
TURCK Linear position Sensors Replace Magnetostrictive and Potentiometer Devices
Minneapolis, MN — TURCK’s new LI-Q25 series linear position sensors replace magnetostrictive and potentiometer devices to deliver precise, repeatable measurements in metal processing machines, rolling mills or injection molding machines. Unlike magnetostrictive or magnetic inductive position sensors, LI-Q25 sensors do not require a magnetic positioning device; thus, they are unaffected by metal debris. The sensors […]
TURCK Expands Line of Low-profile Dual Cylinder Position Sensors
Minneapolis, MN — TURCK announces its BIM-UNT line of compact cylinder position sensors has been expanded to include a new dual sensor for detecting long and short stroke cylinders in stamping, sorting, conveying and other material handling applications. This unique device combines two high-accuracy cylinder position sensors through a single cable connection, reducing wire costs […]
Proximity Sensors Differentiate Metal Types
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. Available in ring and flat housings, these material detection sensors provide sensing ranges up to 11 mm and are well suited for stamping, die cutting and metal sorting applications, where different […]
Cylinder Position Sensors from TURCK
Minneapolis, MN — TURCK has expanded its line of BIM-UNT cylinder position sensors with a new 2-wire DC version, along with a NAMUR option for intrinsically safe applications. The cylinder position sensor features a wear-free design and short circuit protection, making it a suitable alternative to electromagnetic switches in the automotive industry. To further the […]
