Inductive Sensors
Inductive Sensors
Inductive sensors, including proximity sensors, are nowadays indispensable for industrial applications. As compared to mechanical switches they offer almost ideal conditions: non-contact operation free from any wear and tear, high switching frequencies, and accuracy. In addition, they are insensitive to vibration, dust, and moisture. Inductive proximity sensors can also detect metallic objects without requiring direct line-of-sight. They can detect objects through non-metallic materials such as plastic or glass, making them suitable for applications where the target object may be concealed or inaccessible.
Inductive sensors, especially inductive proximity sensors are commonly used in applications such as presence detection, object counting, position control, and speed monitoring. They find extensive use in industrial automation, robotics, assembly lines, conveyor systems, and packing machinery.
Magnetic Sensors
IFM’s magnetic field sensors are engineered for demanding industrial environments. This means customers benefit from long‐term stability, minimal downtime, and consistent performance even under harsh conditions.
High Precision & Fast Response: These sensors deliver accurate position and speed feedback. Their rapid response time ensures efficient process control and high-quality automation.
Easy Integration: Designed with industrial interfaces and standardized connections, IFM sensors seamlessly integrate into existing automation systems. This reduces installation time and lowers overall system costs.
Reduced Maintenance & Cost Efficiency: With pre-calibrated, rugged designs, these sensors require less maintenance over their operational lifetime, leading to a lower total cost of ownership.
Enhanced Safety & Process Optimization: By reliably monitoring machine positions or rotations, they help prevent equipment malfunctions and improve overall process safety.
Magnetic Sensors
Photoelectric Sensors
IFM,s range of brands is rich in a variety of photoelectric sensors that are used in many industries. Customers can opt for M18 type optical sensors, which are used in the food and beverage industry, among others. These sensors are characterized by exceptional resistance to harsh industrial conditions – the high degree of protection IP 69K qualifies our sensors for use in digital food production halls in wet areas where aggressive cleaning agents are used. The robust sensor housing made of high-quality stainless steel also enables precise monitoring of objects, e.g. in breweries, the meat processing industry or cheese production.
The product range of ifm electronic also includes the photoelectric distance sensors OMH, which are used e.g. on high-speed conveyor belts, where they enable frequency measurement of up to 1200 Hz in speed mode and detection of small objects with a resolution of up to 0.01 millimeters. OMH optical sensors are characterized by exceptional functional accuracy, so they also enable the precise positioning and stacking required, for example, in the manufacture of battery cells.
