Count Small Metal Parts
Metal parts such as rivets, screws, springs and bolts are detected as
they travel through plastic tubing. The sensors feature quick response
times and high resolutions—even steel balls with 0.6mm diameters can be
detected. Each model offers two output versions: static and dynamic.
Static-style sensors generate an output signal when there is metal in
the detection zone. Dynamic sensors are used when very small parts with
low mass or fast-moving parts need to be detected. As the parts travel
past the sensor, the sensor generates an output, which is adjustable
from 0.1 to 150ms. Ring sensors are Micro DC units with PNP or NPN
outputs, normally open/normally closed and are available in a variety of
diameters from 10.1mm to 15.1mm. Tube sensors are Micro DC units with
PNP or NPN outputs, normally open. List prices for the Ring and Tube
sensors start at $175.ifm efector inc.www.ifmefector.com800.441.8246
