Digital signal conditioner

01 November, 2008

The SA40082 is a 3-channel digital signal conditioner from Spectron Systems Technology. Originally designed as an integral tri-axis electronic inclinometer, this versatile signal conditioning module can be used in various other applications.


Proximity sensors

01 November, 2008

Infra International manufactures a range of inductive proximity sensors designed to fit a wide range of industrial sensing applications. All Infra proximity sensors are designed, built and quality tested in house at its factory in Italy. The sensors are available in 4, 5, 6.5, 8, 12, 18 and 30 mm diameter sizes and sensing distances from 0.8 to 20 mm.


Laser-line profile sensor

01 November, 2008

The scanControl 2700/ 2710 laser line profile sensor from Micro-Epsilon can acquire profiles of the most varied target surfaces. Consisting of a compact sensor with integrated electronics, it is suitable for an industrial environment, especially in automation systems because of its relative small size. Typical tasks include measurement of profiles, angles, gaps and clearance.


Stainless steel inductive sensors

01 November, 2008

The 316 stainless steel, metal face sensor line is designed and tested to provide reliable position indication in harsh food and beverage applications.


NIR transmission sensors

20 October, 2008

NDC's NW710 near infrared sensor is designed to provide basis weight and moisture measurement of Spunbond fabrics in a single, non-nuclear sensor.


Networkforce/torque sensor system

05 October, 2008

ATI Industrial Automation has released a networkforce/torque (Net F/T) sensor system. The Net F/T system measures six components of force and torque (Fx, Fy, Fz, Tx, Ty, Tz) and provides an ethernet /IP and CANbus communication interface and is compatible with standard ethernet. The Net F/T system is available with all of ATI’s force/torque transducer models.


Weld nut sensors

05 October, 2008

Turck has introduced magnetic-inductive sensors for efficient and economic detection of weld nuts. These sensors use signal attenuation to reliably detect ferromagnetic components such as nuts, bushings and spacer sleeves and ensure these necessary components are present before robotic welding occurs — with no additional software or electronics required.


Laser distance sensor

05 October, 2008

The Acuity AR700 laser distance gauge is a triangulation sensor that measures distance using a laser beam, a camera and a microprocessor. A variety of models are available, with measuring ranges varying from 3.175 to 1270 mm.


Plastic detecting sensors

05 October, 2008

Turck has introduced the BCC capacitive sensor series, specifically designed to provide accurate level detection in the plastics industry. The BCC series features good EMC and ESD immunity, allowing the sensors to reliably detect the level of plastic pellets in a hopper while withstanding environmental interference.


Banner Engineering photoelectric sensors

05 October, 2008

Banner Engineering’s World-Beam QS18 universal voltage sensors feature AC or DC voltage operation. The 3-wire photoelectric sensors deliver solid-state output for reliable presence/absence detection in a wide variety of applications, including package and material handling.


Angular position sensor

05 September, 2008

ASM has introduced the POSIROT PRAS3, a magnetic angular position sensor in a compact 36 mm diameter housing. The active sensor element uses an internal, contact-free permanent magnet to determine the angular position. The measurement ranges are available in 15° increments: 0-15, 0-30, 0-45 up to 0-360°. The servo flange mounting ensures quick and easy installation for the PRAS3 series.


Water sensors

05 September, 2008

Banner Engineering World-Beam QS30H2O opposed mode water sensors provide a solution for efficiently detecting water-based liquids in clear, frosted, coloured or even partially opaque bottles or containers.


Draw wire position transducers

05 September, 2008

WayCon Positionsmesstechnik is a manufacturer of draw wire position transducers for industrial use. Due to its small overall size, short assembly time and possible customisation, the SX sensor technology is a cost-effective and flexible solution for a wide range of industrial applications.


Oil analysis sensor

05 September, 2008

The DUO10A oil analysis sensor is designed to aid the prevention of unplanned gear-unit downtime. It allows the early detection of gear-unit oil deterioration and can prevent eventual gear-unit damage or failure, making it a key element of any effective predictive maintenance program.


Applied Measurement linear position sensor

05 September, 2008

The LCIT series is based on a patented linear position sensor design that features all of the benefits of current LVDT (linear variable differential transformer) inductive technology, but at a significantly lower cost.
