Locon Enhances Inductive and Photoelectric Sensors for Use in Harsh Environments
The Universal Cylindrical FMS Series Photoelectric sensors use pulsed infrared M18 and M30 photoelectrics. These sensors are designed to detect targets in the environments containing moisture and dirt and up to temperatures of 250°C. The high temperature inductive sensors are available in 2 to 50 mm range and can be operated in -25°C up to 250°C temperature range.

No Space is Too Small for These Miniature Sensor Units
No Space is Too Small for These Miniature Sensor Units Even the largest manufacturing plants rely on small, specialized machines to function effectively. In fact, the more complex your operation becomes, the more likely you are to struggle with size and space restrictions. Tool and die makers, CNC machines and advanced robotics are especially prone to these limitations. Fortunately, we have a...

How to Prevent Downtime in Automotive Plants from Broken Parking Brake Cables
Although Locon Sensor Systems works with businesses in an assortment of industries, we often find ourselves working closely with automotive plants or clients with automotive applications. The reason why is simple: the sensors we manufacture and supply thrive in the harsh conditions of an automotive plant. For example, when workers are welding or are coating a tight metal finish for a particular...
Read More »How Inductive Sensors Ensure Workpiece Carriers Stay In Position
Inductive sensors check the presence and position of workpiece carriers. In an automotive assembly line, for instance, these sensors prove to be invaluable to the lift and transfer process. When cylinder heads get transferred to another line for mounting on an auto engine, the workpiece gets lifted from one carrier to another– inductive sensors fitted on the roller conveyor do the job of...

Reduce Setup Times With Inductive Proximity Sensors
To make certain of tool closure, it's a good idea to utilize inductive proximity sensors. When machinery is operating, you want it to work flawlessly so you don't have any downtime, mistakes, or problems. Inductive proximity sensors help to ensure a tool-press is completely closed before molding tools are changed. The sensors monitor the machinery at all times, conveying the targets are...
