Inductive Switch Improves Reliability of Proximity Sensing (.PDF Download)

    June 3, 2016

    A common application seen throughout the industrial and commercial sectors is proximity sensing—detecting when some object is physically close to a sensor. A variety of processes can be implemented with proximity sensors, which come in a range of flavors, each with varying degrees of detection range, sensitivity and reliability. However, a new inductive sensor has arrived that could change the face of proximity sensing...
