SICK MZCG magnetic cylinder sensor

Click2Contact

The MZCG magnetic cylinder sensor from SICK is designed for position detection in pneumatic grippers or miniature pneumatic cylinders with C-slots. Due to its universal housing design, the product fits in a wide range of C-slots from the most common manufacturers, which allows for a more flexible machine design.

With a housing of only 12.2 mm and a 90° rotated radial cable connection, the sensor is suitable for small drives. With easy mounting, it can be inserted into the C-slot via drop-in and fastened quickly.

The short switching point of the magnetic cylinder sensor, which has been optimised for gripper applications, enables fast cycle times and is said to improve the efficiency of the process. The cable can withstand high torsional forces and a large number of rapid direction changes, making it suitable for use in highly dynamic applications such as robotics, handling, mounting and the electronics industry.
