The first part of this article introduced the inductive proximity sensor. This second and final part looks at some more specifics of this sensor. Q: Are there different architectures and ...

Non-contact sensing of a nearby object’s linear or rotary position in an electrically and mechanically harsh environment is a common system requirement. There are several ways to meet this objective, ...

The inductive sensor works on the principle of Faraday's Law and Lenz's Law. according to Faraday when the current passes through the conductor the electromagnatic field is created (current Passed to ...

Non-contact proximity sensors can improve the ruggedness of manufacturing operations, such as metal component assembly, by replacing delicate mechanical switches. Sensor selection for these ...

Both eddy current sensors as well as inductive switches and displacement sensors each have their respective advantages when measuring position and displacement of objects in harsh environments.
