Cylinder-position sensors are used in pneumatic or hydraulic cylinders. They determine the home and end stroke of the piston head within the cylinder. The difficulty lies in detecting the position ...

According to its developers, the MR series is designed to be a drop-in form, fit and function replacement for magnetostrictive sensors but with more robust construction and a lower cost of ownership, ...

Over the years, many users have abandoned the use of reed switches due to their failure rate and have utilized mechanical or inductive sensors to detect pneumatic cylinder position. AMR and GMR ...

Designed for continuous use at operating pressures up to 350 bar, the Novotechnik TH1 touchless sensors are readily integrated into high-pressure hydraulic and pneumatic cylinders. TH1 transducers ...

When used with short-stroke pneumatic cylinders, a single sensor from ifm electronic’s new MK59xx range can detect both cylinder end positions, whereas, in the past, two separate sensors would have ...

The wire-bound element reportedly provides maximum sensor life and reliability, with an absolute analog output of .15 percent linearity. By mounting within cylinders, the TDP-100 avoids the potential ...

The Strokemaster cylinder-indicator sensor is designed to signal the user that a cylinder rod has been fully extended or retracted in such applications as clamping devices on injection molding ...
