Embark on a journey through our extensive array of Autonics Proximity Sensors, encompassing both Inductive and Capacitive variants, boasting NPN/PNP NO configurations that span distances ranging from 2mm to 15mm. These state-of-the-art sensors specialize in detecting nearby objects without necessitating physical contact, a feat achieved by emitting an electromagnetic field or radiation, including the deployment of infrared waves, and subsequently analyzing alterations within the field or the signal’s response.
These sensors designate the objects they detect as their ‘proximity targets.’ It’s imperative to select the appropriate sensor, as different targets mandate specific sensor types. Inductive proximity sensors, for instance, proficiently harness electromagnetic fields to identify metallic objects. Conversely, capacitive sensors exhibit remarkable versatility by extending their detection capabilities to encompass both metallic and non-metallic targets. Delve into our diverse selection of dependable sensors, meticulously designed to cater to your exacting proximity sensing prerequisites, delivering unparalleled precision and efficiency.
