MZCG Sensor for T-Slot Cylinders
Brand: Sick AGThe MZCG magnetic cylinder sensor detects the piston position in pneumatic grippers and pneumatic miniature cylinders. Thanks to its very small design, the MZCG is particularly well-suited for the C-slots of very small pneumatic actuators such as are used in handling and assembly, robotics or the electronics industry.
The sensor is simply inserted in the C-slot and can be quickly and safely fastened on the cylinder. The MZCG fits in a wide range of C-slots of various manufacturers due to its universal housing design. This reduces storage costs, enables flexible machine design and easier service.
At a glance
- Extremely small housing (12.2 mm) for applications in pneumatic grippers and miniature cylinders
- Fits in all commonly-used C-slots, e.g. from Schunk, Zimmer, Festo or SMC
- Short, precise switching point, ideal for applications with small stroke
- Cable suitable for drag chain
- LED for indicating the output state
- IP68 enclosure rating
- Extremely small housing saves installation space, thereby increasing efficiency of the system
- Shorter switching point optimized for gripper applications increases process efficiency due to higher PSDI times
- Suitable for a wide range of applications: It fits into all standard C-slots, regardless of the cylinder profile or make
- Reduced storage costs, flexible machine design and easier service
- Inserting the sensor into the slot is quick and easy
- The rugged mounting holds the sensor in the required position, even when exposed to shock and vibration, and increases the reliability
