MPS-G Position Sensor
Brand: Sick AGMPS-G position sensors continuously detect the position of the fingers of pneumatic grippers and the piston position of miniature cylinders using a direct, non-contact method. The magnetic distance measuring system with the compact design enables extremely precise position determination. The sensor supports countless wiring and control concepts.
SICK offers two product variants for this purpose: Sensors with analog voltage output and IO-Link sensors with Smart Sensor profile and two adjustable digital switching outputs – the right solution for nearly any requirement.
Via IO-Link, the MPS-G also delivers comprehensive diagnostic data including performance data from pneumatic drives or data on condition monitoring of systems.
At a glance
- Position feedback with a measuring range of up to 50 mm
- Programming of up to 3 digital switching signals
- 16 switching points via IO-Link
- Adjustment of digital switching outputs via dynamic teach-in
- Diagnostic data of grippers and cylinders
- Data on machine temperature and vibration
- Detection of sensor head orientation
- Definition of two, three or more switching points to differentiate between gripper positions and several objects
- Simple measurement of components with absolute position value
- Reproducible detection of very small object tolerances
- Completely protected due to flush installation of the sensor head
- Optimizes costs in orientation detection of objects and vibration monitoring in sensitive manufacturing process as additional sensors are not needed
- Optimizes processes and predictive maintenance of pneumatic systems by monitoring the drive performance
- Simplifies temperature monitoring in systems due to integrated temperature sensor
