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 ...

Properly choosing an inductive proximity sensor can be challenging. Learn about the critical factors to consider when making your decision. Inductive proximity sensors detect the position/presence of ...

ifm presents new inductive proximity sensors in full metal housings in three sizes for safety applications: M12, M18 and M30 with a housing length of 60 mm. For use in mobile machinery, they are ...

Inductive sensors are non-contact proximity sensors that detect ferrous targets, ideally ones made of mild steel thicker than one millimeter. They consist of four major components: a ferrite core with ...

Abstract: By non-contacting measurement, the inductive proximity sensor overcomes disadvantages such as short service life and unreliability of position detection components like micro-switch. And ...

Abstract: This letter presents an inductive sensor based on a micromachined coil for the detection of conductive targets. The proposed sensor consists of a planar micromachined sensing coil, a signal ...
