Inductive analog sensors
Reliable positioning
Inductive analog sensors – positioning reliably and
precisely to the highest standards with an extremely
large detection range.
Inductive analog sensors from SICK have extremely large detection ranges,
high precision and robustness. The current or voltage signal delivered at the
output is proportional to the distance between the metal target and the sensor.
Similarly, targets of various shapes, sizes and material types (ferrite and non-
ferrite metals) generate various output signals. The sensors are hence suitable
for distance measurement, positioning, angle detection, bearing clearance and
true running control, detection of material and size differences, thickness
measurement, etc.
