Position sensors instrument portfolio- IFM

There are several principles to detect material, inductive, capacitive, magnetic or photo sensors:

  • Capacitive sensors are non-contact devices, which can detect the position of any conductive target.
  • Inductive sensors are non-contact devices, which can detect the position of metallic targets.
  • Magnetic sensors are non-contact devices, which can detect the position of magnetic targets.
  • Photoelectric sensors are non-contact devices, which can detect the position of solid or reflective targets.
