Locked/unlocked position detection with inductive sensors - Baumer

Automatic Tool Changer — Inductive Sensors

Reliable detection that the automatic tool changer has correctly coupled to its mating half is safety-critical.

Task

Monitoring the locked and unlocked state by detecting the piston position.

The integrated fail-safe mechanism built into most automatic tool changers cannot on its own prevent a fault caused by incomplete latching. Baumer's inductive sensor technology, with its fully potted electronics, delivers a rugged, airtight solution with excellent repeatability across a wide temperature range.
