Contrinex Smart Sensors, designed with the needs of OEMs and system integrators in mind, have all the answers when it comes to reducing complexity and cost.
Contrinex offers the smallest self-contained miniature inductive sensors on the market, with sizes from ∅3 to ∅4 mm and 5 × 5 mm, and sensing range up to 2.5 mm, IO-Link.
These innovative sensors are designed to detect double-sheet conditions with exceptional accuracy, effectively preventing the costly damage often associated with tooling mishaps.
The ACTIVSTONE coating on all external surfaces, resists weld spatter in spot and extends operational life, but also minimizes downtime due to maintenance.
The customizable, ready-to-integrate photoelectric distance measurement sensors are designed to deliver reliable performance and exceptional flexibility for automation needs.
In metal-forming manufacturing, precision and efficiency are essential, any oversight or error can result in costly downstream scrap, production interruptions, and rejection of otherwise viable parts.
Contrinex's suite of solutions—Inductive Miniature Sensors, Travel Sensors, and Smart Sensors—addresses the intricate needs of compact machine-tool spindles.
Contrinex Smart Sensors sense the presence of individual sheets and also detect unwanted double-sheet conditions, triggering an alarm before damage occurs.
