Balluff Object Detection Sensors

Used for sensing the presence and absence of objects within synchronous/automated assembly processes.

 

Inductive Proximity
Non-contact detection of metallic targets at shorter ranges.

 

Photoelectric
Special optical sensors that check for presence, shape, color, edge, distance, and thickness.

 

Capacitive
Detect many objects, as well as fill level of non-conductive materials, liquids, pellets, and powders directly- or through non-metallic container walls.

 

Pneumatic Cylinder Sensors
Magnetic type for reliable and wear-free detection of "piston position" in pneumatic cylinders.

 

Tubular Magnetic Field
Allows position detection, even in the case of where materials are non-magnetic.

 

Ultrasonic
Object detection & measurements using sound emitting sensors.

 

Mechanical
Limit switch, contact type sensing, for positioning tasks.

 

Inductive Limit Switches
Single & multiple position inductive points are triggered by non-contacting cams.
