Baumer: In the field of drive engineering, measured value acquisition poses increasingly difficult challenges when it comes to dynamics and precision. These two generally conflicting requirements are difficult to unite when using conventional...

Baumer: In a hot environment, for example in operating with diesel engines at high intrinsic temperatures, it is essential to provide temperature-sensitive electronic components in encoders with thermal protection if you want to keep system...

Baumer: Often there is only very limited space available for sensors and actuators in apparatuses and mobile devices. The new distance measuring Series IWFM 08 inductive sensors address exactly these applications. With their compact outer...

Micro-Epsilon provides extremely flexible solutions in the area of eddy current sensors for OEM applications. This flexibility ranges from cost-optimised sensor systems with highly integrated electronics through to innovative sensors with...

Leuze electronic: With the new GS 61 and GS 63 optical forked photoelectric sensors, Leuze electronic has reduced size and, at the same time, improved performance in comparison to previous devices. Now even closer to the dispensing edge, they are...

Micro-Epsilon: A development project for a bore hole sensor envisaged by Micro-Epsilon last year has now resulted in a marketable product. The miniature confocal sensor with a diameter of just 3.4mm can now be used to measure the internal walls of...

Micro-Epsilon: A new controller from Micro-Epsilon opens up multiple potential applications. The electronics unit on the new CSP2008 Universal Controller takes over the processing of up to six sensor signals and is primarily intended for thickness...

Micro-Epsilon has launched a brand new system for the geometrical inspection of ingots called “dimensionCONTROL 8260 for Ingots”. In just a few minutes, the system can inspect the surface of the ingots using several laser optical sensors (line...

Balluff: By developing the new Micropulse "ProCompact" transducers, the sensor specialist and connectivity provider Balluff has set new standards for the outdoor use of magnetostrictive distance measurement systems. Manufactured completely from...

Balluff: The name Globalprox stands for a complete, globally available product line of rugged inductive sensors in 2- and 3-wire technology from Balluff. The sensor specialist and connectivity provider introduced additions to the line with DC...

Penny + Giles, the position sensor specialist, has launched a new contactless rotary position sensor with dual outputs, SRH280DP. The new sensor incorporates a factory programmable Hall effect sensor and has two outputs that can be programmed...

Leuze electronic: The ROTOSCAN RS4 Safety Laser Scanners from Leuze electronic have been equipped with requirement-compliant function packages. In combination with the possible protective field ranges and the various switching outputs, a total of...

Leuze electronic: When designing a collision system, there are challenges not only with the construction of a damping system and the integration of acceleration sensors: safeguarding also means a great challenge. Strict safety regulations must be...

Micro-Epsilon: Sensor specialist Micro-Epsilon has received an order from the Chinese Academy of Science to supply 600 eddy current sensors to the largest Chinese reflector telescope LAMOST (Large Sky Area Multi-Object Fibre Spectroscopic...
