With frequent manual format change adjustments on their press feed resulting in wasted material and tool damage, a Michigan-based metalworking manufacturer sought a cost-effective solution that didn't require replacing their aging machinery.

When it comes to reliability and accuracy, there is no optical sensing mode better than the through-beam photoelectric sensor. Its reliability is a result of the extraordinary levels of excess gain - the measurement of light energy above the level required for normal sensing.

When it comes to any manufacturing process and not just improving robotic welding automation, companies should be asking what their goals are.

Ever feel like your proximity application isn't working just right? Maybe it’s the inductive sensor selection.

With frequent manual format change adjustments on their press feed resulting in wasted material and tool damage, a Michigan-based metalworking manufacturer sought a cost-effective solution that didn’t require replacing their aging machinery.

In an effort to create a more lean process and improve product quality, a large manufacturer of controllers and drives for automatic doors and blinds sought a modern and cost-effective solution for quality testing motors for external blinds.

Magnetostrictive linear position sensors are the dominant technology for hydraulic cylinder position feedback. They are preferred over alternatives due to their high accuracy, wide variety of electrical interfaces, signal stability across temperature variation, wear-free operation, and tolerance of shock and vibration.

Customized sensors, embedded vision and RFID systems are often requirements for Life Science devices to meet the needs for special detection functions, size constraints and environmental conditions.

The BOS 21M photoelectric sensor family with IO-Link offers you a variety of application possibilities, including those in harsh industrial environments. That is because their rugged metal housing delivers both IP67 and IP69K protection and Ecolab approval.

Unscheduled stops and faults in the production process can be avoided using our new multi-functional condition monitoring sensor. This intelligent sensor provides you with condition information which you can use for automating cost-intensive manual inspections.
