Industrial Automation

Inductive Proximity Sensors - SICK

There are millions of inductive sensors deployed in almost every area of factory automation. They detect metal objects contactless and are distinguished by a long operating life and extreme robustness. The inductive proximity sensors from Sick provide optimum precision and reliability using the most modern ASIC technology.

SICK can always provide the right solution to meet your requirements – from cylindrical and rectangular standard sensors with one, two or three set switching distances to special sensors for Ex-zone applications and harsh environments. It is the intelligent, reliable route to implementing industry-specific and customized solutions to any task involving automation.
