Industrial Applications

1. Automated Welding Cell Part Detection

Provides precise non-contact detection of iron workpieces in active robotic welding cells without falsifying signals from electrical interference.

Problem Solved

Standard sensors melt or malfunction due to hot welding spatter. The PTFE coating and dedicated noise-canceling IC ensure continuous, reliable operation.

2. Heavy-Duty Metal Fabrication Positioning

Ensures metal sheets are correctly positioned before a press or cutting blade engages in high-vibration heavy machinery environments.

Problem Solved

Requires rugged detection capable of sensing metal reliably at 4mm despite severe mechanical shocks and metal dust accumulation.
