The new inductive ring and tube sensors from ifm electronic reliably detect small metallic parts with high resolution and fast response time of 0.2 ms. The sensors can detect steel balls as small as 0.6 mm in diameter moving at speeds up to 35 m/s. The sensors are easy to adjust and configure for normally closed or normally open functions through potentiometers that control pulse stretching and sensitivity. Typical applications include handling, manufacturing, and special machinery.

- 1. Press release wpi 387 / 0610 Area: Position sensors Inductive ring and tube sensors reliably detect small metallic parts Essen, 1 June 2010 - ifm electronic has added ring and tube sensors to its wide range of inductive sensor technology. A very high resolution and the fast response time of 0.2 ms characterise the new sensors. The detect even steel balls with a diameter of only 0.6 mm at a speed of up to 35 m/s. The static and dynamic versions are easy to adjust. The normally closed and normally open function can be selected. Pulse stretching and sensitivity can be adjusted via potentiometer. This saves time and cost during installation. For the ring sensors, the tube is guided through the ring. The safe detection of e.g. screws, rivets, springs etc. is difficult to disturb from the outside as the sensing field completely lies inside the ring. Tube sensors, in contrast, have another advantage: they are easy and quick to install by means of cable ties. One type can be used for different tube diameters. Typical applications are the handling industry, manufacture of wire, iron, sheet-metal and metal products and fittings, as well as special purpose machinery. Also, the new ring and tube sensors are distinguished by their robustness and the excellent price / performance ratio. wpi_387_print.jpg Contact Reliable detection of small ifm electronic gmbh metallic parts by means of Friedrichstr. 1 inductive ring and tube 45128 Essen sensors. www.ifm.com Tel.: 0201 / 24 22-0 Fax: 0201 / 24 22-1200 e-mail: info@ifm.com Simone Felderhoff Texts / photos can be found on our website. www.ifm.com Press officer Tel. 0201 / 24 22-1411 simone.felderhoff@ifm.com Dipl.-Ing.
