Position Sensors play an important role in our daily lives. A position sensor, as the name indicates, provides feedback on the position of the measurand by detecting the presence/absence of an object ...

The first part of this article introduced the inductive proximity sensor. This second and final part looks at some more specifics of this sensor. Q: Are there different architectures and ...

Non-contact sensing of a nearby object’s linear or rotary position in an electrically and mechanically harsh environment is a common system requirement. There are several ways to meet this objective, ...

The proximity sensor is one of the oldest electronic components used in automation to detect objects. However, early designs of proximity switches required mechanical contact, which became unreliable ...

The ICB Series features a high performance potting material that is made from recycled corn by-product, which features a higher resistance to mechanical stress, thus providing increased reliability, ...

Introducing the IGMP 030 S-80 series, sensor expert EGE provides new inductive proximity switches for low-temperature environments in medical technology, spiral freezers, and other cryogenic ...

Abstract: We present the design of a new inductive proximity sensor to detect metal targets and their direction of movement. The proposed sensor design includes a base board with the necessary ...

Reliable sensing in an automobile can make a trip that much more enjoyable. Something as simple as a reliable door closure indicator can remove distractions while driving, or better yet, quickly ...
